Eager fans turned out for a matchup between the Tennessee Smokies and Jacksonville Suns.

The Tennessee Smokies defeated the Jacksonville Suns, 14-2, at Smokies Park. Tennessee was led by 22-year old catcher Ken Clark, who was 3-3 with a double, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. Randy Byrd, the winner, goes to 2-2. He allowed 1 run on 6 hits, with 1 walk and 10 strikeouts over 6.2 innings.

Augusto Gracía was 3 for 5 with a triple, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for Tennessee. The 25-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a 2-run single off Orlando Rivera. It was his 13th hit of the season.

"Good hitting and good pitching is a lethal combination," said Clark.

The loss has the Suns at 12-9.
