From the Notes

Series-ly Sweeping: With the opportunity at back-to-back series sweeps, the Sounds can match the feat of eight straight wins and back-to-back sweeps they accomplished last year when they swept Sacramento and Las Vegas in eight days.

One Run, One After Another: With last night's 4-3 score, the Sounds have now played four consecutive one-run games. They've now played 20 one-run games, the most in all of Minor League Baseball. They're 10-10 in the one-run contests.

Turn Around the Cats: With a 7-0 record against the River Cats over the last two seasons, the Sounds are now 26-49 all-time against Sacramento. From 2000-2014, the River Cats dominated the series with a 49-19 record against Nashville. Prior to last year's sweep, Nashville had not won a series against Sacramento.
