"Josè Suarez pitched a phenomenal game to everyone not named Cooper Hummel, who homered twice. Ever since August 1st, José has been extremely big for the Stripers - making five starts, and coming out of the bullpen twice. Suarez sequenced his pitches very well using his four seam, two seam, changeup, slider, and curveball, sitting in the low 90s with his fastball. Because it was a double header the game lasted just seven inning, so after Suarez was taken out Blake Burkhalter threw four pitches, recorded three outs, and secured the game one win."
"The Stripers only recorded one extra-base hit, but went 4-for-10 with runners in scoring position to score all of their runs. It started with a bases loaded RBI single by Eddys Leonard in the bottom of the first. An RBI single to right by David McCabe gave them the lead in the third, and with Luke Waddell going first to third, he was able to score on a sacrifice fly by the next hitter - Eddys Leonard to put Gwinnett up 3-1."
Cam has delivered a fantastic rookie season after an up-and-down start. Gwinnett won a seven-inning doubleheader against Durham, taking game one 6-2 and game two 2-1. In game one (59-75 Gwinnett), Josè Suarez worked six innings, allowing two earned runs with eight strikeouts, and Blake Burkhalter closed with one perfect inning. Gwinnett produced runs with timely RBI singles from Eddys Leonard, David McCabe, Jason Delay, and Conner Capel despite only one extra-base hit. In game two (60-75 Gwinnett), Nathan Wiles tossed five scoreless innings, Matthew Batten hit a home run, and Davis Daniel provided a clean relief inning to secure the win.
