Tim Dillard: 35-year-old Tim Dillard gets the nod for the Sounds in "relief" today. The right-hander is 3-3 with a 5.53 ERA in 13 games (5 starts) in 2019. Dillard last pitched on May 22 in a home start against the Memphis Redbirds. He was tagged with the loss after he allowed 5 runs (4 earned) on 6 hits and 2 walks. He struck out one batter to tie Jamie Werly's franchise record 352 strikeouts. Dillard is the Nashville Sounds all-time leader in innings pitched (599.0), wins (42), runs allowed (335) and walks (207) and is currently second all-time in games (222) home runs allowed (49). In his career, Dillard has pitched in 73 big league games and 491 minor league games. He signed a minor-league free agent contract with the Texas Rangers on December 21, 2018.

The game will be a 9-inning contest, followed by a 7-inning contest for game two of the doubleheader.

Guerrieri Gets the Ball in Game 2: Pitcher Taylor Guerreri is the scheduled starter for Nashville in game 2 of the twin bill today. The right-hander has pitched in 10 games this year, all out of the bullpen. The last time Guerreri started a game was on June 17, 2018 with Triple-A Buffalo.
