Nashville Sounds News Release


NASHVILLE - The Norfolk Tides scored a pair of runs in the eighth and ninth innings to steal a come-from-behind 7-4 win over the Nashville Sounds on Tuesday night at First Horizon Park.

Armed with a 4-3 lead and working in his fifth inning, Sounds reliever Jason Alexander ran into a jam in the unfortunate eighth inning. Robert Neustrom's one-out double gave Norfolk a runner in scoring position and Rylan Bannon followed with a bloop base hit to even the game at 4-4.

Alexander got the second out of the inning but then issued a walk to Brett Cumberland to put runners at first and second. Nashville turned to reliever Peter Strzelecki who allowed a go-ahead RBI single to Patrick Dorrian to give Norfolk a 5-4 lead.

The Tides added a pair of run-scoring hits in the ninth to take a 7-4 lead.

Brice Turang extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a single in the bottom of the ninth inning, but the Sounds stranded a pair of runners to end the game.

Norfolk scored first with a pair of runs in the top of the second, but Nashville battled back with a single tally of their own in the bottom half of the second and three in the third to take a 4-2 lead.

Jonathan Davis had a sacrifice fly in the second, David Dahl evened the game with a run-scoring double in the third and Weston Wilson's two-run single gave the Sounds the lead.
