The Tennessee Smokies topped the Jacksonville Suns, 7-4, in Southern League action at Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville. The game was highlighted by the performance of Tennessee pitcher Daryl Young. The winner was Young. He threw 6.0 innings allowing 3 runs. The loser was Jarred Turner. With the win, Tennessee has a record of 23-34. Jacksonville falls to 41-16.

It could have been a different outcome for Tennessee, had it not been for Manolo Ríos, the 23-year old center fielder . Ríos contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the fourth inning to put Tennessee up, 4-1.

"Winning never gets dull," said Ríos.
