BIRMINGHAM BARONS AT TENNESSEE SMOKIES
GAME ID: 6127 - FRIDAY, JULY 10TH , 2026 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Birmingham Barons (44-41) 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 3 0
Tennessee Smokies (34-51) 1 0 3 0 1 0 0 0 X 5 11 0
Tennessee Beats Birmingham, 5-2
Behind the hitting of Jorge Cortéz, the Tennessee Smokies stopped the Birmingham Barons, 5-2. Cortéz went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for the Smokies. Bob Johnstone notched his 6th save in 7 chances. Birmingham's current losing streak has reached 4 games.

There was more than one reason the Smokies beat the Barons, but Cortéz's big at-bat in the bottom of the first was an important factor. He staked his team to a 1-0 lead when he hit a run-scoring single.

Afterward, Birmingham manager Casey Kopitzke said: "We've hit a rough patch."
