RF Spencer Jones (1-for-4, K) made his first start and second appearance of his career in right field and reached base safely three time, scoring a run in the fifth inning.

Jasso’s 19-game on-base streak is the fifth longest active on-base streak in the Eastern League. At the end of the game, Jasso is third in the EL in TB (99), tied for sixth in H (57), tied for seventh in R (33), tied for eighth in XBH (21), tied for eighth in RBI (33) and ninth in SLG (.481).
