Full Recap: JacksonGeneralsBaseball.com

TODAY'S PITCHING MATCHUP: In search of a series-equalizing win, Jackson will throw Bo Takahashi on Friday against talented Mississippi right-hander Ian Anderson. Both players earned 2019 Southern League Midseason All-Star acclaim. Takahashi's previous start against the M-Braves was shortened due to rain, and in the three innings he worked, he allowed 4 earned runs. Anderson's previous start against the Generals was a nail-biter, with Jackson falling 2-1 in a seven-inning contest where Anderson allowed one run on five hits.

DV, JAZZ, AND JEFF: In the week since the Southern League's All-Star Break, Jackson's leading hitters have been Daulton Varsho, Jazz Chisholm, and Jeffrey Baez. The resurgence of Baez's bat has been particularly useful, considering he batted .220 in May & started June in a 7-for-44 slump (.159 BA).

DV, post-ASG: 7-for-21 (.333), 4 R, 2 RBI, 3 BB

Jazz, post-ASG: 9-for-24 (.375), 6 R, 8 RBI, 5 BB

Jeff, post ASG: 8-for-19 (.421), 4 R, 3 RBI, 2 BB
