From the Notes
Wilson's Way: Outfielder Kenny Wilson has hit safely in six consecutive games and eight of nine overall. During his six game streak, he's hitting .389 (7-for-18) with 2 RBI and 1 walk. It's the longest individual hitting streak for a Sounds player this year.
Opposite Directions: Nashville and Colorado Springs are two teams heading in opposite directions. The Sounds have lost a league-high five straight games while the Sky Sox have won four consecutive games. It's tied for the longest winning streak in the PCL with Tacoma.
Slow Start: At 3-8, the Sounds are off to their worst start since beginning the 2008 season 2-9. The five-game losing streak is the longest since they lost five straight from June 30-July 4 of last year. The last time a Sounds squad lost six straight was April 30-May 5 of 2015.
