DURHAM, NC - The Nashville Sounds hit five home runs on their way to claiming the first game of a six-game series with the Durham Bulls 12-2 at the DBAP on Tuesday night.
Jared Oliva homered twice as part of a three extra-base-hit night. Oliver Dunn tripled, singled and homered, while Ernesto Martinez and Drew Avans also homered for the Sounds (7-6).
Dom Keegan singled in Durham's first run of the game in the fourth, bringing home Curtis Mead. In the ninth, Jamie Westbrook doubled home Tanner Murray to pull the Bulls (7-4) to the closing margin 12-2.
