The Nashville Sounds, with Adam Hall on the bench, returned to winning ways on Friday night, defeating the Memphis Redbirds (Triple-A, St. Louis) in a commanding 7-1 performance at First Horizon Park.
The Sounds secured the victory with a strong start and dominant pitching, putting their previous loss behind them.
While Hall was with the team, he did not feature in this particular game.

The Sounds' offense continued to produce runs to take the win.
Rodriguez's dominance on the mound continued into the second inning, where he added another three strikeouts to his tally, ultimately recording six consecutive strikeouts.
