LAST GAME: Jackson, Tenn. - The Jackson Generals, the Double-A affiliate of Major League Baseball's Arizona Diamondbacks, broke a 2-2 tie with a five-run seventh inning, powering past the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp in a 7-2 victory at The Ballpark at Jackson on Friday. The Generals (77-57) hit three solo home runs --- including back-to-back jacks in the seventh --- to end the playoff hopes for the Jumbo Shrimp (66-70). Full Recap: JacksonGeneralsBaseball.com

TODAY'S MATCHUP: In a change of plans, the Generals will throw right-hander Cole Stapler for their Saturday evening regular season finale against Jacksonville. Stapler's last four outings have each lasted three or fewer innings, but he hasn't given up a run in the month of August over 16.0 innings of work. Stapler faces Jacksonville right-hander Edward Cabrera, who is carrying a 2.45 ERA in 7 starts with the Jumbo Shrimp. Cabrera is just 21 years old.

HURRICANE DORIAN'S IMPACT: Due to the anticipated arrival of Hurricane Dorian on the Florida coast early this week, the Southern League office has made the decision to cancel Sunday and Monday's games of the Generals' series against Jacksonville in order to allow the Jumbo Shrimp to return home and prepare their families and belongings for the storm's impact on Jacksonville. Tickets for Sunday's and Monday's cancelled games can be exchanged for tickets to tonight's game or Jackson's upcoming playoff game at The Ballpark on Sept. 6.

ALL-STAR 2020: On July 29, the Jackson Generals announced that they would play host to the 2020 Southern League All-Star Game at The Ballpark at Jackson, their first All-Star Game since 2011. Manager Blake Lalli was a participant in that 2011 game, which the North Division won 6-3. (CLICK: 2020 SL ASG release)
