Gwinnett Stripers News Release


LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - The Gwinnett Stripers (21-32) were held scoreless through 14 innings of baseball on Wednesday night at Coolray Field, losing 8-0 and 1-0 in a doubleheader against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (32-21). Gwinnett combined for three hits across both games.

Decisive Plays (GM1): Jacksonville took advantage of three Gwinnett errors to put together a six-run third inning. The inning was capped by a two-run homer from Jack Winkler (5) that just got over the center field wall. The Jumbo Shrimp added run-scoring singles in the fourth and the sixth to increase their lead to 8-0. Gwinnett's lone hit in the loss was a second-inning single by Jonathan Ornelas who made his Stripers debut.

Decisive Plays (GM2): Jacksonville broke through in the fourth as a grounder off the bat of Maximo Acosta was mishandled at third base by Eddy Alvarez to plate a run. The unearned run was all Jacksonville needed as the Stripers were held to just two hits to cap a 1-0 loss.
