Martinez Beguiles Nashville
Saturday, July 18th , 2026
Rico Martinez bent a little, but he didn't break against the Nashville Sounds. The Syracuse Mets pitcher hurled a 4-hit, 4-0 shutout in a fine performance, surrendering 2 walks and tallying 5 strikeouts.

"Rico is good at getting out of jams," Mets manager Steve Bonardi told reporters after the game. "He's almost more effective when he gets guys on base or gets behind in the count, because he uses your aggressiveness against you."
Raines Tags Sounds for 5 Hits
Thursday, July 16th , 2026
A jubilant Jason Raines joined the postgame press conference at Sounds Grounds to offer some unusual words of encouragement -- for the Nashville Sounds pitching staff he had just vanquished.

"It may not have looked like it," said the Charlotte Knights catcher, "but I saw some awful good pitches today. If luck hadn't been on my side it might have turned out a lot different."

That would not have been the conclusion of anyone who saw his dominant 5-for-6 hitting performance, which led to the 5-4 Knights win.

"He made it look easy," said Mike Campbell, manager of the Sounds. "We never figured out what to do with him. Obviously."

Jason Raines singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, doubled in the 8th, singled in the 9th and hit a two-run double in the 11th.

In his season totals Raines has 5 home runs and a .265 batting average.
Season Ends for Brakebill
Thursday, July 16th , 2026
"Not what I wanted to hear," said Durham's Ron Brakebill to reporters this afternoon, as he revealed that the injury he sustained on 07/12/2026 would force him to miss the rest of the season. "The doctor made it clear," Brakebill said. "There's no chance for me -- none at all -- to come back this year. That's the last thing I wanted to hear." Brakebill has been out of action since he suffered a broken bone in the elbow.

This season, Brakebill has hit at a .331 clip with 15 RBIs, 4 home runs and 28 runs scored. He has played in 36 games.
