Hammers Win at Norfolk, 5-0
2026 is shaping up to be a forgettable year for the Norfolk Tides.

Gwinnett turned a fine outing from starter Gilberto Valéncia into a victory over the Norfolk Tides at Harbor Park. The final score was 5-0. Joe Lane earned his 2nd save in 2 chances.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Joe McGrath? The Gwinnett left fielder had a run-scoring ground out in the top of the second inning to put the Hammers on top, 1-0. For the game, McGrath had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Gilberto is good at sticking to his strengths," said Gwinnett manager Ron Warner.

By defeating Norfolk, the third-place Hammers improved to 65-76.
