JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Lorenzo Quintana launched a three-run home run in the fifth as the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp went on to win 5-3 over the Charlotte Knights Saturday night at Truist Field.

Trailing 2-1 in the fifth inning, Jacksonville (36-29) took the lead and never looked back. With one out, Peyton Burdick walked and went to third on a single from Brian Miller.

The Knights tried to rally in the ninth but fell short. With two outs and a man on, Rivera and Zach Remillard walked to load the bases before Jacksonville reliever Robert Garcia (S, 5) induced a fly out by *Mark Payton *to end the game and seal the series win for the Jumbo Shrimp.

Charlotte drew first blood with a run in the bottom of the second. Gavin Sheets doubled and four batters later scored on a single from Rivera to put the Knights ahead 1-0.

The Jumbo Shrimp tied the game in the top of the fourth. Quintana singled and Bleday followed with a walk. Charles Leblanc flew out, allowing Quintana to advance to third and then he scored on an infield single by Erik González to tie the game at one.
