Montgomery Biscuits News Release
MONTGOMERY - Fresh off a draining ten-game roadtrip, Andy Sonnanstine lifted the spirits of Montgomery with a complete game, three-hit masterpiece as the Biscuits (34-31) whitewashed the Mobile BayBears (25-40), 7-0.
Sonnanstine's effort was the first nine-inning shutout for a starting pitcher in Biscuits history, clocking in at a brisk one hour and 58 minutes.
Wes Bankston, Michael Coleman and Jason Pridie all homered for Montgomery in the winning effort. Bankston and Pridie's shots each came off of losing pitcher Sean Thompson (1-6), who surrendered six runs on eight hits in six innings.
The second game of the five-game series will be played at 7:05 pm Wednesday, with Montgomery sending righthander Tony Peguero (6-6, 3.38) against Mobile righthander Jared Wells (4-3, 2.69).
