Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp News Release


JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Martin Prado reached base four times on Tuesday in his major league rehab assignment, but the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp were shut out 5-0 by the Mississippi Braves at the Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville.

With one out in the first inning, Ray-Patrick Didder singled and stole second for Mississippi (43-52, 10-16). Jacksonville (43-52, 14-11) starter Jorge Guzman (4-9) then walked Tyler Neslony before inducing a pop out. A free pass to Greyson Jenista loaded the bases before a wild pitch plated Didder for the game's first run.

With the score still 1-0 in the fourth, William Contreras walked to begin the frame. Alejandro Salazar and Daniel Lockhart each notched singles to load the bases for Kyle Muller, who registered a sacrifice fly to make it 2-0. Cristian Pache followed with an RBI base hit to widen the Braves' advantage to 3-0.

Mississippi added to its lead in the eighth when Riley Unroe clubbed a two-run home run.

Muller (6-5) pitched 5.1 shutout innings to earn the win for Mississippi.

Prado walked three times - a total that matched a career-best and was also a season-high for a Jumbo Shrimp batter - and singled in the Jacksonville effort.

Tuesday's winning raffle number of 1232244031 won a prize of $50.

The Jumbo Shrimp enjoy an off day on Wednesday before traveling to Chattanooga to begin a four-game set with the Lookouts in Thursday's 7:15 p.m. ET contest. RHP Sixto Sanchez (4-4, 3.73 ERA) starts for Jacksonville. Coverage begins at 7 p.m. on MiLB.tv, Sunny 102.3 FM, TuneIn and JaxShrimp.com.
