Kingsport rolled all over Bluefield 18-6 and it’s hard to believe that a guy who belted two homeruns wasn’t even the hitting star.  Greg Veloz played a part in eight of Kingsport’s 18 runs and he went three for five with two doubles, one walk, four RBIs and four runs.  Jeremy Hambrice went two for five with two homeruns and four RBIs.

All three Kingsport pitchers gave up runs but Jorge Rodriguez picked up the win.  He gave up two runs on three hits and four walks with one strikeout in four innings.

Angel Calero threw five outstanding innings of shutout relief in Kingsport’s 6-3 win over Bluefield.  He gave up just three hits and a walk with five strikeouts.

At the plate, Kingsport truly had a team effort in this one.  All six runs were scored by different players and five different hitters drove in runs.  Jeremy Hambrice was the only Met to go yard and he finished two for four with the solo homerun.
