Bostick powers Tides in wild contest

Christopher Bostick homered and drove in five to help power Norfolk to a 16-14 win at Louisville Friday. 

Bostick belted a three-run homer during a six-run second inning and later added a two-run single to help pace Norfolk's 14-hit attack. His big night helped extend his hitting streak to 10 games, the longest by a Tides player this season. 
Jace Peterson homered and drove in three in the win, as Norfolk set a season-high with 16 runs scored. The 30 combined runs in the contest set a new Slugger Field record. 
Every Tides batter registered a hit in the contest, while seven of the nine batters in the order registered an RBI. Anthony Santander had three hits, including a pair of run-scoring doubles. 
Louisville belted five home runs in the contest, with Sherman Johnson and Josh VanMeter both hitting multiple round trippers. VanMeter finished with five hits in the contest to raise his average to .349. 
The two clubs will continue their three-game set on Saturday night at Slugger Field, with first pitch set for 6:00. Luis Ysla will make the start for Norfolk, with airtime on ESPN Radio 94.1 set for 5:45.
