MADISON, AL - The Montgomery Biscuits (19-14) split a doubleheader to finish their series against the Rocket City Trash Pandas (10-21) on Sunday afternoon at Toyota Field. The Biscuits took five of six in the series and are 10-2 against Rocket City this season.
Game One
Montgomery took an early lead en route to a 9-4 win in the first game.
The Biscuits jumped ahead with a three-run first inning. Colton Ledbetter brought in the game's first run on a groundout. Then, Will Simpson smashed a two-run homer to left center for his third long ball in four games to make it 3-0. Simpson finished the series with 11 hits, three home runs, and seven RBI.
Ledbetter singled in a run and an error scored another to make it 5-0 in the third.
Brody Hopkins allowed three runs, one earned, in 4 1/3 innings. He pitched three perfect frames before slowing down in the fourth inning. He struck out eight and walked three.
In the seventh, Tatem Levins and Ricardo Genoves hit back-to-back RBI singles to extend the lead to 9-4.
Game Two
The Biscuits gave up the lead late in a 7-5 loss in game two.
Again, the Biscuits struck in the first inning. With two outs and the bases loaded, Levins doubled down the right-field line to score two runs. In the third, Brayden Taylor's sacrifice fly and Willy Vasquez's double brought in two more to make it 4-0. The Trash Pandas responded with a four-run bottom of the third to tie the game at 4-4. Homer Bush Jr. made a terrific catch at the wall in center to prevent more runs in the frame.
Ledbetter went 3-for-4 with three singles and singled through the right side for the Biscuits to retake a 5-4 lead.
Rocket City picked up three runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 7-5 lead and held on for the win. It was the first lead of the series for the Trash Pandas.
