From the Notes
Wes Side Story: Wes Benjamin made his fourth career relief apperance as a professional in his last outing on June 9 and earned his second career save. His three other relief appearances came in 2016 with Class-A Hickory, and his other save came in the first game of that season. That was also a 4.0 inning save, where he allowed no runs on a hit and a walk with 2 strikeouts at Greensboro on April 11.
Hey June: Nashville pitching has been very good in June. They are 4th in the Pacific Coast League in ERA at 4.10, and starters are 4-2 with a 3.11 ERA. The bullpen is 1-5 with a 5.01 ERA. Batters are hitting above the season average, hitting .253.
White Gets to 10: Eli White has hit safely in 10 consecutive games and is looking for a 10th tonight. During the streak, the SS/CF is hitting .286 (12-for-42) with 7 runs scored, 1 double, 5 home runs, 7 RBI and 2 walks. With Willie Calhoun failing to get a hit last night, White has the longest hitting streak among Nashville hitters. It's the Sounds the team's 5th hitting streak of at least 10 games this year (Calhoun - 16, Granite - 14, Cole -12, White - 12). It's also the third time this season White has recorded an on-base streak of at least 10 games.
