Tides Trounce Knights behind Record Night

S. Samek

The Norfolk Tides had a record-breaking night on Wednesday. They won 26-11 over the Charlotte Knights while breaking a few of franchise marks.

They hit eight home runs in the contest, including three by Kyle Stowers. They had 29 hits overall, also a record. Stowers also contributed seven RBIS. He also broke the mark with 44 home runs for Norfolk.

 Heston Kjerstad drove in a franchise record 10 runs. Jackson Holliday went 4-6 while scoring five runs. Coby Mayo had a five hit game and was just a home run away from finishing the cycle. Seven players reached base at least four times in the win. This is the box score for this record-breaking game.

With a team this loaded in top prospects is it any surprise to see this type of score? I don’t think so. I can’t wait to see more of it, well until they get called up the show. If they don’t it’s going to be tough to stop this team from repeating as International League champions.
