JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Nashville Sounds got home runs from Keston Hiura and David Dahl and never went down in order on Friday night, but it wasn't enough in a 7-3 loss to the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp at 121 Financial Ballpark. The six-game series is even at two wins apiece.

Jacksonville also hit two homers in the game, and each of theirs was a three-run shot. Dylan File gave one up to Bryson Brigman in the third for a 3-0 deficit, and Hiura launched a solo homer to left field to make it 3-1.
