Damasco Excels, But Suns Win
The Jacksonville Suns overcame a good performance by Tennessee first baseman Armando Damasco to knock off Tennessee, 10-7, at Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville. Damasco slugged 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 5. The winning pitcher was 24-year old right-handed pitcher Cody Ross. He tossed 111 pitches over 7.1 innings, allowing 5 runs on 5 hits. Jacksonville is now 53-47, Tennessee 45-54.

Ted Zoulek had a big run-scoring triple for the Suns in the bottom of the third inning. With Jacksonville leading 3-2 and a runner on 1st, he got a sinker from David Jones, who is tied for 3rd in the SL in quality starts with 12, and swatted a triple to left-center. It was his 3rd triple of the season, and more importantly, it put the Suns ahead, 4-2.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Zoulek said.
