JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Despite a great outing from Max Meyer (L, 2-3), the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp fell to the Durham Bulls 3-2 Wednesday afternoon at 121 Financial Ballpark.

Durham (36-32) took the lead after being shut out through the first three innings. After two quick outs to start the frame, Xavier Edwards (3) launched a solo home run, giving the Bulls a 1-0 advantage.

The Bulls added two more runs in the top of the seventh. Edwards led off with a single and two batters later, Jim Haley (11) blasted a two-run home run to put Durham ahead 3-0.

Jacksonville (37-31) tried to mount a late rally in the eighth inning. Santiago Chavez started the inning with a double and went to third on a wild pitch. Two batters later, Peyton Burdick singled, scoring Chavez to give the Jumbo Shrimp their first run of the game. A groundball allowed Burdick to advance to second, who then scored on a single from Lorenzo Quintana to make it a one-run game, 3-2. The rally ended there and Jacksonville was sent down in order in the ninth.

In his first start back with Jacksonville since being placed on the injured list on May 18, Meyer dominated as he struck out five batters in four innings with one run allowed on one hit. He retired the first 11 straight batters before the solo home run in the fourth. Huascar Brazoban contributed two scoreless innings with five strikeouts and one hit allowed.
