From the Notes

Leaderboard: Anthony Garcia leads the Sounds in runs (64), doubles (23), home runs (19), and RBI (68). If he finishes the season in the lead in all four of those categories he would be the first Sounds player to do so since Chris Truby in 2004.

Crazy Eight: Chris Bassitt tossed eight innings in his start last night to match a Sounds season-high. It was the third time this season a Sounds starter went eight innings. Frankie Montas did so on May 14 against Memphis and Ben Bracewell went eight against Omaha on July 16. The Sounds are 2-1 in those games.

Knock Three Times: Bassitt allowed just three hits in his start last night and Josh Lucas did not allow any in relief. The three hits yielded by the Sounds matched a season-low. The Sounds limited the New Orleans Baby Cakes to just three hits on April 7.

Kicking the Dust Off: Dustin Fowler was not getting consistent at-bats with Oakland prior to being optioned by the A's on August 1, but has made his presence felt in Music City. In his two games with the Sounds he is 5-for-8 with two runs and a stolen base. In his 32 games with the Sounds this season he has amassed 16 multi-hit games.

Back above .500: Last night's win put the Sounds above .500 at 56-55. Prior to tonight the last time Nashville was over .500 was after an 11-3 win against Tacoma on June 8 that pushed their record to 30-29.

Ramon Laureano had 13 outfield assists in 64 games with the @nashvillesounds and 2 in 2 games with the @Athletics. Teams won't learn, I guess.
