Not Asheville's Night; Tourists Fall 17-3

BOWLING GREEN- Friday night is a game the Asheville Tourists have already put in the rearview mirror. The Tourists suffered their biggest defeat of the season, 17-3, at the hands of the Bowling Green Hot Rods.

Asheville fell behind 16-0 before Oliver Carrillo hit a solo Home Run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Tourists on the board. Carrillo finished 2-for-4 and has reached base safely at least once in his last nine games played. Jackson Loftin finished his 3-for-4 evening at the plate on a high note with a two-run Homer in the top of the ninth.

Bowling Green had three players tally four hits and two more recorded three. The Hot Rods outhit the Tourists 23-8. Despite the lopsided result, Asheville still has an opportunity to win the road series with a pair of wins over the weekend.

Asheville will attempt to bounce back in Game Five of the series which is set for Saturday night at 7:35pm ET.
