In Nashville for Laracon with a few members of the Plank team, going to a baseball game was not at all on my radar. I think I only thought to see if there was a minor league team in town and not only was the Nashville Sounds a AAA team, but also playing a game while we were there.
I was decided I wanted to see a game and I was very happy that the rest of the team was up for it as well.
- What is so interesting is that for a AAA park some of the condo developments around it that are going up are view driven
- The Nashville Sounds (51-41, 11-7) piled on the runs with a pair of huge innings in a 17-3 thumping of the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (41-52, 9-10) at First Horizon Park. Abraham Toro tied the Sounds single-game hit record with five knocks in the runaway victory.
- The Sounds became the first full-season Minor League Baseball team to score eight runs in multiple innings in a single game.
- Nashville scored a season-high 17 runs, the most since they won at Louisville 17-1 on September 21, 2022.
- Abraham Toro (5-for-5, 3 R, 2 2B, 3 RBI) is the first Sounds hitter with a five-hit game since Brice Turang’s five-hit performance on April 22, 2022, vs. Charlotte. During his eight-game hitting streak, Toro is batting .531 (17-for-32) with five doubles, two homers, six RBI and 10 runs. In the month of July, Toro boasts a .411 average (23-for-56) with 12 extra-base hits and 1.219 OPS in 14 games.
- Patrick Dorrian became the first Sound to hit multiple grand slams in a season since Anthony Garcia accomplished this feat in 2018. There have been 10 Sounds to hit two grand slams since 2005. J.R. House is the only Sound to hit three grand slams in one season (2004).
