Smokies Come Up Short at Pensacola, 4-3
Doug Merkel was superb against Tennessee. The right-hander had a knuckle curve that was virtually unhittable at times. The result was a Blue Wahoos victory. The score was 4-3. Pensacola, with the win, is 2-0.

Jorge Bautista dealt the Smokies a blow in the bottom of the fourth. Batting with runners on 1st and 3rd and Pensacola leading 2-1, Bautista hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single.

"Doug can bring it," said Pensacola manager Chad Allen.
