Decisive Plays: Memphis took a 1-0 lead in the second inning against Anthony Molina as Jimmy Crooks reached on an error and scored on a double play groundout. Dormant over the first six frames, the Stripers busted out with a seven-run seventh inning that included five doubles and a home run. RBI doubles by Chadwick Tromp and DaShawn Keirsey Jr. gave Gwinnett a 2-1 lead. Brewer Hicklen added an RBI single, Jim Jarvis laced a two-run double, and Aaron Schunk blasted a two-run homer (4) to break it open. Schunk, Tromp, and Keirsey Jr. all drove in additional runs in the final two innings for a 10-3 final.
