NASHVILLE, Tenn. - The Gwinnett Stripers (35-35) yielded six runs over the first three innings in an 8-3 loss to the Nashville Sounds (41-28) on Friday night at First Horizon Park. Drew Waters went 2-for-5 with a triple, run scored, and RBI, but the Stripers couldn't mount a comeback.

Decisive Plays: Gwinnett took a 1-0 lead in the first inning, but Nashville quickly responded with a Mario Feliciano game-tying RBI single and Corey Ray three-run double off Huascar Ynoa (L, 3-4). The Sounds added runs in the second and third to go up 6-1. The Stripers scored twice in the fifth on Waters' RBI triple and an RBI single by Preston Tucker, but Nashville got those runs back in a two-run eighth.
