He went on a .357 tear (10-for-28) to raise his season batting average to .200, a stretch in which he knocked in runs in seven of his eight games, including multiple runs in three consecutive appearances.

Closer Steve Colyer faltered in the first two, not even getting an out in the first game of Tuesday's twinbill. Then Bryan Corey took it on the chin in the 10th inning of the nightcap.

The Redbirds bring up the rear in the PCL Eastern Division, but the 51s had better beware -- Memphis wins 60 percent of its home games in AutoZone Park.
