JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp rode a strong pitching performance in their 3-1 win over the Syracuse Mets Thursday night at VyStar Ballpark.

After a scoreless first frame, Jacksonville (23-19) took the first lead of the game in the bottom of the second. Albert Almora Jr. singled with one out and scored on a double from Jacob Berry drove in the go-ahead run for the Jumbo Shrimp. Jakob Marsee followed with a walk and Joe Mack was hit by a pitch, loading the bases. In the ensuing at-bat, Derek Hill clubbed a base hit scoring Berry and Marsee, giving the Shrimp a 3-0 advantage.

The Mets (16-20) made a late breakthrough in the top of the seventh. Hayden Senger was hit by a pitch and Luis De Los Santos singled. A fielder's choice coupled with a Yonny Hernandez single, scored Senger from third, narrowing the gap to 3-1.
