Wahoos Whack 3 Homers, Arquette Extends Hitting Streak in 8-4 Win
September 12, 2026
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos kept their foot on the gas on Friday night with an 8-4 win over their future playoff opponent Biloxi Shuckers.
As was the case with the first two games of this series, the Shuckers loaded the bases and scored in the top of the first inning. Gabe Bierman got himself into trouble quickly, throwing 12 straight out of the zone to begin the game. Through a pop out and a couple of ground outs, Bierman was able to limit the damage to just the one run.
With two outs in the bottom of the first, Max Williams let the good times roll with a solo shot out to left field, his 6th bomb in 7 games. The 1-1 tie did not last long, however, as Biloxi regained the lead in the second with an RBI single from Dylan O’Rae.
The Wahoos opened up the bottom of the third with back-to-back doubles from Jay Beshears and Cristian Hernández, once again evening the score at 2-2. Hernández proceeded to steal third and eventually came home on a sac fly off the bat of Max Williams. The double from Hernández was his 28th of the season, tying him for second in the Southern League and putting him alone in second for doubles in a single season by a Blue Wahoo.
An inning later, Payton Green kept his hot-hitting ways going with an RBI knock, extending the lead to 4-2. Tristan Stevens took over for Bierman in the 4th inning and the Shuckers got to him in the 5th, with Damon Keith slamming a game-tying two-run job out to left field, his 6th against the Wahoos this season.
With Stiven Cruz (L, 4-3) on the mound for the Shuckers, Cristian Hernández hit a ball 112.1 mph 406 feet over the center field wall, putting Pensacola ahead 5-4. The seventh inning saw a two-run bomb from Colby Shade and the eighth bore witness to an RBI single from Aiva Arquette, who extended his hit streak to 12 games with the knock.
Following 1.2 scoreless innings from Jaydenn Estanista (W, 3-1), Jack Sellinger (S, 9) got the final 8 outs of the ballgame, wrapping up the 8-4 win for the ‘Hoos. They now sit at 79-56 overall and 43-23 in the second half. The 23 games above .500 is a season high for Pensacola. The Shuckers fell to 64-68 and 29-38.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Biloxi Shuckers on Saturday night.

Wahoos Win 7-2 Over Biloxi; Arquette, Williams Homer
September 11, 2026
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos bounced back with a win on Thursday night over the Biloxi Shuckers. Led by a stellar start from Luis Moreno and bombs from Aiva Arquette and Max Williams, the Wahoos ended on top 7-2.
For the first time in the series, the Blue Wahoos struck first. After Jaron DeBerry (L, 8-9) set down the first five Wahoos in order, Ethan O’Donnell wore a hit-by-pitch with two outs in the second inning. Payton Green followed that with a run-scoring double into left field. One pitch later, Emaarion Boyd singled into right field, plating Green and putting Pensacola up 2-0.
In the bottom of the third, Aiva Arquette had a rude greeting for DeBerry by launching his 10th bomb of the year into Pensacola Bay. It was not the first time Arquette had taken DeBerry deep, he hit a solo bomb off of him back on August 11th as well. Arquette now has six hits in nine at bats against the Biloxi starter in his career.
With a 3-0 lead, Luis Moreno (W, 7-7) blinked in the 4th. Matthew Wood sent a solo home run halfway up the scoreboard in right field to make it a 3-1 game. The only other blemish for Moreno came in the 6th inning when Andrew Fischer obliterated his 47th home run of the season into right. The home run marked a milestone, giving Fischer the most homers by a minor leaguer since Ryan Howard hit 46 in 2004.
Before Fischer could etch his name in history though, Max Williams continued his hot streak with a 439 foot two-run blast in the 5th. The homer was his 5th in 6 games with Pensacola.
A 5-2 lead wasn’t enough for the Wahoo offense, so they added two more runs in the bottom of the 8th. With Cristian Hernández on second and Payton Green on first, they both took off stealing. The throw was to second base, but ended up in center field allowing Hernández to score. Dylan Jasso dinked a single off the glove of third baseman, bringing Green home and putting the Wahoos up 7-2.
Nigel Belgrave entered in the 7th inning and put all nine batters he faced away in order, sealing his team-leading 10th save of the year. The Wahoos improved their record to 78-56 overall and 42-23 in the second half. Biloxi fell to 64-67 and 29-37. If Pensacola can win two of their final three games, they’ll finish their regular season with the best record in franchise history.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Biloxi Shuckers on Friday night.

Wahoos On The Wrong End Of Blowout In 9-2 Loss
September 10, 2026
The Pensacola Blue Wahoos fell to the Biloxi Shuckers 9-2 on Wednesday night. It was the first time the Shuckers bested the Wahoos since July 19th.
For the second straight night, the Shuckers scored in the top of the first. And, for the second straight night, it was a sacrifice fly off the bat of Eric Bitonti with the bases loaded. The 1-0 lead didn’t hold long however, with Connor Caskenette blooping an RBI single into left field scoring Aiva Arquette.
Starters Alex Williams and Bishop Letson (W, 7-6) both locked it down for the remainder of their respective outings. Williams completed 3.0 innings and allowed just an unearned run on one hit and 5 Ks. Letson put together one of his best starts of the season, going 6.1 innings and allowing just four hits (one past the first inning) and one run on 9 Ks.
Biloxi managed to get to the Pensacola bullpen, putting up four runs off of Justin Storm (L, 2-1) and Mason Vinyard. All four runs came via the longball with Braylon Payne hitting an opposite-field solo shot in the 5th and Mike Boeve smashing a three-run tater in the 6th. With a 5-1 lead and Letson out of the game, the Wahoos got a run back in the 8th from a run-scoring single off the bat of Ethan O’Donnell.
The Shuckers put up four more runs in the top of the 9th off of the reigning Southern League Pitcher of the Week Juan Reynoso. Jesús Made, Josh Adamczewski, Eric Bitonti, and Jheremy Vargas all drove in a run on four base hits. Reynoso was unable to finish the inning, with Jack Sellinger entering to put out the fire by getting Darrien Miller to fly out to right.
Travis Smith and Ryan Birchard combined to get the final 8 outs and sink the Wahoos. The Shuckers improved to 64-66 overall and 29-36 in the second half while Pensacola fell to 77-56 and 41-23.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Biloxi Shuckers on Thursday night.

Wahoos Trounce Shuckers In Playoff Preview
September 9, 2026
In a preview of a playoff matchup beginning in a week, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos made a statement. A 9-run 8th inning led the Wahoos to a 15-7 over the Biloxi Shuckers.
Jacob Miller got off to a tough start on Tuesday night, allowing the first five batters to reach. The first three went single, walk, walk, loading the bases for the fearsome Andrew Fischer. Off the bat, it looked like Fischer had his 47th home run of 2026, but Colby Shade went over the wall and knocked it back into play. When the play was over, Fischer ended up with an RBI single. Two more runs crossed on an RBI knock from Damon Keith and a sac-fly from Eric Bitonti, giving the Shuckers a 3-0 lead before Pensacola could even come to hit.
The Wahoos loaded the bases with nobody out off Manuel Rodriguez, but only brought home one run, thanks to a deep sacrifice fly from Max Williams. Miller would pitch around baserunners in the second and third innings to finish strong, ending his day with 3.0 innings and just the three first inning runs.
Jaydenn Estanista was the first man out of the pen and quickly surrendered two runs in the top of the fourth. A leadoff walk to Daniel Dickinson and a Braylon Payne single both came around to score on Josh Adamczewski’s two-run single, extending the Shuckers lead to 5-1. The Blue Wahoos offense didn’t let up though, matching those two runs in the home half of the fourth on a two-RBI double from Ethan O’Donnell.
The sixth inning saw the scoreboard flip for the first and final time. Max Williams led the inning off with a majestic moonshot to right field, his 4th in as many games with the Wahoos. Three straight singles followed, loading the bases before Colby Shade struck out. With one down, Dylan Jasso grounded a ball to short that looked like an inning ending double play, but an errant throw from Dickinson allowed two runs to score, putting the Wahoos ahead 6-5.
Tristen Stevens (W, 1-0) threw 2.0 hitless innings, lowering his ERA to 0.90 through his first 10.0 innings. Pensacola followed this pitching performance by unloading in the 8th inning, putting up 9 runs off of Wande Torres (L, 1-1)(BS, 1) and Edwin Jimenez. Dylan Jasso had two RBIs. Dylan Lewis, Max Williams, Ryan Ignoffo, and Ethan O’Donnell each had an RBI. And the inning was capped with a bases loaded, bases-clearing double from Colby Shade, putting the Wahoos up 15-5.
After Nigel Belgrave struck out the side in the 8th, Josh Hejka finished the game in the 9th. Jesús Made and Josh Adamczewski each took Hejka deep before the final out was recorded and the Wahoos took home the 15-7 win.
The Blue Wahoos continue their series against the Biloxi Shuckers on Wednesday night.
