Sounds Score Late to Upend River Cats, 8-3
The Nashville Sounds knocked off the Sacramento River Cats, 8-3, in American Conference action at Raley Field. Nashville pitcher and Amarillo, Texas, native Clayton Blackburn had an outstanding performance. Blackburn picked up the win for Nashville, going 8 innings. He gave up 3 runs on 8 hits. He now sports a record of 10-3. Nashville, at 58-42, is 10½ games up in the American Conference North Division.

Had Manuel Margot not delivered a key base hit in the top of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Margot hit a 2-run single. That made the score 5-3, in favor of the Sounds.

"We take it day by day here," said Blackburn, "and today was a good one for us."
