JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jacksonville Suns evened
the series with the Montgomery Biscuits with
a 9-6 win in a matinee Monday morning at the
Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville.
John
Lindsey cracked a third-inning, base-clearing
double and Xavier Paul hit a three-run homer
in the seventh in the game.
Biscuits
starter Mike Prochaska (0-3) allowed five
runs in his five-inning stay, suffering the
loss. The bullpen was no better. Jarod Matthews,
who entered to throw a perfect sixth inning,
walked the bases full in the seventh. Brian
Henderson did no better, allowing a run-producing
groundout and Paul's three-run blast.
Montgomery
scored in the second inning on a John Jaso
RBI single but played from behind the rest
of the game. Lefty starter Mike Megrew lasted
5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs. The Biscuits
tagged Alabama native Wesley Wright for four
runs in his 1 2/3 innings of relief. Evan
Longoria hit a two-run homer in the seventh
inning.
