Wahoos Drop 3-2 Nailbiter To Clingstones
August 23, 2025
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos lost their second game in a row on Friday night, falling 3-2 to the Columbus Clingstones in a low-scoring affair.
The Clingstones jumped ahead 1-0 in the second inning with a pair of singles from Adam Zebrowski and Drew Compton, followed by a sacrifice fly from Geraldo Quintero. That would be the only run allowed by Blue Wahoos starter Orlando Ortiz-Mayr, who worked 4.0 innings of three-hit, one-run ball.
After being stymied for four innings against Clingstones ace Ian Mejia (W, 11-2), the Blue Wahoos put together a rally in the fifth. Jared Serna laced a bases-loaded single to center field to tie the game 1-1, but both Kemp Alderman and Tony Bullard were retired to end the threat.
Columbus wasted no time in taking the lead back, stringing together three singles off Gabe Bierman (L, 0-2) in the bottom of the fifth. Jim Jarvis slapped an RBI single through the drawn-in Pensacola infield to score EJ Exposito and give the Clingstones a 2-1 edge.
Will Schomberg was greeted rudely in his Double-A debut for Pensacola, issuing a leadoff walk to Geraldo Quintero in the sixth before David Fletcher singled in an insurance run. Schomberg would bounce back, eventually completing 3.0 innings of relief without allowing another hit, but the third Clingstones run would prove to be the difference.
Fenwick Trimble got a run back for the Blue Wahoos with a seventh-inning solo homer, his second in as many days, but two late pickoffs squandered Pensacola’s opportunities to tie the game. Elison Joseph (S, 6) worked around a one-out single in the ninth inning to seal the 3-2 final.
With the loss, the Blue Wahoos saw their lead over the second-place Montgomery Biscuits shrink to 1.5 games in the second-half division race. There are 21 games remaining in the regular season.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Clingstones on Saturday night.

August 22, 2025
written by Erik Bremer
COLUMBUS, Ga. – The Pensacola Blue Wahoos fell 6-1 to the Columbus Clingstones on Thursday night, managing only three early hits and missing out on opportunities to capitalize on mid-game opportunities.
Fenwick Trimble opened the scoring with a solo homer for the Blue Wahoos in the second inning, but it proved to be Pensacola’s only run. The Blue Wahoos were held hitless after Dub Gleed’s single three batters later.
Dax Fulton (L, 5-10) was scheduled to start, but the threat of rain pushed back the beginning of his appearance. Luis Palacios quickly worked 2.0 perfect innings before Fulton took the mound in the bottom of the third.
A two-out RBI infield single from Patrick Clohisy in the third inning tied the game 1-1, and Clohisy scored from third base on a wild pitch two batters later to give the Clingstones a 2-1 lead.
The Blue Wahoos loaded the bases with three walks in the top of the fifth inning against Columbus starter Drue Hackenberg, but Blane Abeyta (W, 2-1) stranded all three runners by coaxing a groundout from Mark Coley II to end the threat and preserve the 2-1 Clingstones advantage.
Fulton couldn’t work out of similar bases-loaded trouble in the bottom of the fifth, hitting Ethan Workinger with a pitch to force in a run before Adam Zebrowski laced a three-run double to left field to cap a four-run inning.
Abeyta and Ryan Bourassa combined for 4.1 hitless innings of relief for the Clingstones, securing the 6-1 final.
With the loss, the Blue Wahoos missed out on a chance to grow their 2.5-game lead over the second-place Montgomery Biscuits, who were trailing to the Knoxville Smokies at publication. There are 22 games remaining in the regular season as the Blue Wahoos aim to secure their eighth playoff berth in 10 seasons.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Clingstones on Friday night.
Wahoos Rally Late To Beat Clingstones 5-4
August 21, 2025
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos scored three runs in the eighth inning to defeat the Columbus Clingstones 5-4 for their second win in a row on Wednesday night.
Trailing 4-2 down to their final five outs, the Blue Wahoos got a double from Tony Bullard before Mark Coley II laced a two-run homer over the left field wall to tie the game. It was the fourth homer in five games for Coley, giving him five on the season.
After the dramatic Coley homer, Gage Miller drew an 11-pitch walk to force Clingstones reliever Amos Willingham (L, 1-1) from the game. Rolddy Muñoz got a strikeout for the second out of the inning, but allowed a Dub Gleed double to left-center that gave Pensacola a 5-4 edge and proved to be the game-winner.
The late rally helped Jake Brooks (W, 1-2) earn his first Double-A win. The Pensacola righty matched a career high with 7.0 innings, allowing four runs but keeping the Blue Wahoos within striking distance throughout the night.
Kemp Alderman gave the Blue Wahoos a quick 1-0 lead in the first inning, hitting his team-leading 13th home run on his 23rd birthday against Columbus starter Lucas Braun. The Clingstones tied the game in their half of the first inning on an Adam Zebrowski RBI single, and took a 3-1 lead on a Patrick Clohisy two-run homer in the second inning.
The Blue Wahoos got a run back in the fifth on a Fenwick Trimble RBI single, but Columbus stretched their lead back to 4-2 on a David Fletcher RBI single in the bottom of the sixth.
After Pensacola’s eighth-inning rally, Colby Martin and Nigel Belgrave (S, 4) protected the 5-4 Blue Wahoos lead with scoreless relief to lock down the win.
With the victory, the Blue Wahoos maintained their 2.5-game lead over the second-place Montgomery Biscuits, who won their game 4-1 over Knoxville. There are 23 games remaining in the regular season as the Blue Wahoos aim to secure their eighth playoff berth in 10 seasons.

written by Erik Bremer
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos began a pivotal road series against the Columbus Clingstones with a 3-0 shutout win on Tuesday night.
Alex Williams (W, 4-3) earned his first win of the season as a starting pitcher, scattering five hits over 5.0 innings while throwing a season-high 91 pitches. Luarbert Arias, Evan Fitterer and Josh Ekness (S, 10) worked the final four innings to give the Blue Wahoos their sixth shutout win of the season.
Ryan Ignoffo gave Pensacola a quick 1-0 lead in the first inning, doubling home Kemp Alderman from first base on a liner to right-center. It marked the fifth extra-base hit in five games for the hot-hitting catcher, who was removed from the game with an apparent injury in the third inning.
Mark Coley II stayed hot as well, lacing a two-run homer off the left field scoreboard for a 3-0 Blue Wahoos lead in the second inning. Coley, who hadn’t homered since early April before going deep last Friday and Saturday, later added a single in a 2-for-4 night.
The Blue Wahoos didn’t manufacture any offense after their early outburst, as Clingstones starter Landon Harper (L, 3-7) settled in to complete 5.0 innings of three-run ball. Three Columbus relievers worked 4.0 perfect innings of relief, but the Pensacola bullpen was just as effective to seal the 3-0 final.
Third baseman Gage Miller, added to the roster from High-A Beloit earlier in the day, went 1-for-4 with a run scored in his Double-A debut for the Blue Wahoos.
With the win, the Blue Wahoos maintained their 2.5-game lead over the second-place Montgomery Biscuits, who won their game 5-2 over Knoxville. There are 24 games remaining in the regular season as the Blue Wahoos aim to secure their eighth playoff berth in 10 seasons.

August 18, 2025
written by Willie Phaler
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos fell to the Birmingham Barons 6-3 in Sunday afternoon’s series finale.
Despite the loss, franchise history was set in the first inning for the Blue Wahoos. With a steal of third, shortstop Jared Serna broke the franchise record for team steals in a season, swiping the Blue Wahoos’ 164th base of the year.
The Blue Wahoos got on the board first for the first time this series in the first inning, with Ryan Ignoffo muscling out a two-run home run for his third of the year against Birmingham starter Tanner McDougal. Serna scored on Ignoffo’s home run after the record-breaking steal.
Pensacola added another run two innings later to push their lead to 3-0 with a Fenwick Trimble RBI single to right-center, his second hit of the afternoon.
Birmingham scored two runs in the fourth on a two-base error after DJ Gladney lined a fly ball to left, hitting off the glove of Mark Coley II. Sam Antonacci and Caden Connor scored, but both runs were deemed unearned on the line of Blue Wahoos starter Jacob Miller (L, 3-5).
Birmingham took a 6-3 lead with a four-run top of the sixth after an RBI single from Gladney and a three-run home run by Calvin Harris. Two runs were charged to the starter Miller, and two were charged to reliever Jesse Bergin, who allowed both hits after entering with one out in the frame.
Miller turned in a steady outing for the Blue Wahoos. In 5.1 innings of work, the 2022 second-round pick struck out five and allowed three walks and three hits to Birmingham’s offense.
Tyler Schweitzer (W, 5-0) had a strong relief outing for Birmingham. After allowing singles to Coley and Connor Caskenette to begin his outing in the fourth, Schweitzer retired the next 12 hitters in a row to mark 4.0 scoreless innings. Mark McLaughlin threw a clean eighth, and Garrett Schoenle (S, 7) closed out the series in the ninth.
Gabe Bierman and Luis Palacios pitched scoreless innings in the eighth and ninth, keeping the game within reach for the Blue Wahoos.
With their loss and a win by the Montgomery Biscuits on Sunday, the Blue Wahoos’ division lead sits at 2.5 games.
