Nashville Struggles in Triple-A Game Despite Stellar Debut from Coleman Crow
Nashville faced an unexpected late-game collapse on Wednesday night, losing to the Memphis Redbirds 7-6 despite holding a commanding five-run lead entering the sixth inning at First Horizon Park. This loss allowed the Memphis Redbirds to take a series lead over the Sounds and highlighted the unpredictability of the game.
In a notable turn of events, Coleman Crow made his highly-anticipated Triple-A debut after being reinstated from the injured list earlier that day. Crow showcased a strong performance on the mound, delivering four scoreless innings while striking out seven batters, effectively limiting the Redbirds to three hits and two walks. He exited the game with Nashville leading 3-0.
Game Highlights
The Sounds began the game with promising momentum, highlighted by Bobby Dalbec, who led off the second inning with one of his two hits and scored to bring Nashville ahead 2-0. Dalbec also recorded an RBI single in the bottom of the third inning, contributing significantly to Nashville’s early advantage.
Tyler Black further extended the Sounds’ lead with a two-out, two-RBI single in the fifth inning, bringing the score to 5-0. However, the situation quickly turned for the Sounds as Memphis began their comeback in the sixth inning.
Memphis Stages a Comeback
The turning point came when Luken Baker opened the sixth inning with the first of two home runs, igniting the Redbirds’ offense and starting their comeback with a three-run rally. The situation escalated in the seventh inning when Jimmy Crooks hit a grand slam off pitcher Vinny Nittoli, propelling Memphis into a 7-6 lead and stunning the home crowd.
Despite a valiant effort from Raynel Delgado, who nearly produced a walk-off home run with a powerful hit that drifted foul, Nashville struggled to regain its earlier control. In the ninth inning, Oddanier Mosqueda capped the game with a strikeout against the Sounds, sealing Nashville’s fate and concluding the thrilling contest.
Upcoming Games and Schedule
This defeat leaves Nashville and Memphis in a competitive series, with games continuing at AutoZone Park from Friday through Sunday. Following this series, Nashville will embark on a six-game road trip to Durham ahead of the All-Star break.
The Sounds are set to return to First Horizon Park on July 18 to face the Indianapolis Indians, a Triple-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The anticipation for that matchup is expected to draw even more fans as Nashville seeks redemption after this recent loss.
Conclusion
Coleman Crow’s debut shone brightly despite the ultimate outcome for Nashville, indicating potential for the team moving forward. With games scheduled closely in the coming days, both Nashville and Memphis are set for intense matchups that may shift the standings in the series.
