From the Notes

On the Road Again: At 23-10, the Sounds have the best road record in all of Triple-A Baseball. Only two full season teams have a better record away from home. The Advanced-A Visalia Rawhide and the Double-A Corpus Christi Hooks are both 26-9 on the road.

Stiking 'em out: Chris Smith (77) and Dillon Overton (72) are among the top five in strikeouts by a pitcher this season. Smith's 77 strikeouts are good enough for third place behind Albuquerque's Jeff Hoffman (79) and Oklahoma City's Jharel Cotton (78). Overton's 72 punchouts places him fifth best in the PCL.

Power Surge: In the month of June, Sounds hitters have already hit 25 home runs in 21 games. The Reno Aces are the only team in the PCL that has hit more (29). The Las Vegas 51s have also hit 25 homers.
