MOBILE, AL - The Mobile BayBears (20-13, 54-47) fell to the Jacksonville Suns (12-22, 41-62) for the second straight night, dropping Friday's contest 4-7 at Hank Aaron Stadium.

The score remained the same until the sixth inning. The BayBears posted three runs in the frame. Sean Jamieson drew a lead-off walk and then Mobile struck for four straight hits. Zach Borenstein drove in both Jamieson and Socrates Brito with a two-run double. A batter later, Garrett Weber drove in the tying run with a RBI base hit to even the score at 3-3.

The tie didn't last long as the Suns reclaimed the lead in the top of the seventh inning. Riddle lifted the Suns with a two-run home run, making the score 5-3 Jacksonville. After the BayBears pulled within a run when Tom Belza hit a solo shot in the bottom of the seventh inning, Riddle struck again in the top of the ninth inning with his second two-run homer of the contest.
