Game Keys - John Lindsey drove in four runs at a rain soaked Greer Stadium in Nashville as the Zephyrs beat the Sounds 7-4 in a rain shortened game on Thursday night. The rain fell for most of the game and in the top of the ninth with the field deteriorating and the rain picking up the umpires asked for the tarp. Following a :30 minute delay the game was called official.

Ryan Tucker pitched six innings and earned the win for the Z's. Alejandro De Aza. Lindsey and Cameron Maybin each had three hits for the Zephyrs. Nashville starter Chase Wright suffered the defeat. Chris Mobley pitched the eighth inning and earned the save.

The Z's have won three of their last four games and wrap up the brief road trip on Friday night.

Game Notes: The Z's added pitcher Jay Buente and assigned pitcher Andrew Miller to the 7 day disabled list. Manager Edwin Rodriguez served the third game of his five game suspension.

Coming Up: The Zephyrs and Sounds meet Friday at 7PM at Greer Stadium. The Z's will start LH John Koronka against RH Mike Burns. RADIO: AM 690 WIST
