Coby Mayo and Kyle Stowers hit home runs for the second straight night Wednesday at First Horizon Park as the Norfolk Tides defeated Nashville 7-3 for their fifth consecutive victory.
Stowers and Mayo both hit solo homers, giving them 10 each on the season, and Mayo has homered in three consecutive games.
The Tides (14-15) scratched across four runs in the sixth inning to break a 1-1 tie. Noelberth Romero hit a bases-loaded sacrifice fly, Errol Robinson had an RBI single, Jackson Holliday provided a run-scoring groundout and Connor Norby added a sacrifice fly.
Norfolk starting pitcher Cade Povich allowed just one run on five hits and four walks while striking out five over six innings.
RHP Justin Armbruester (0-2, 8.38) is Norfolk’s scheduled starter as the teams continue their series in Nashville with a 7:35 p.m. game Thursday.
