Johan Montero followed Chandler and pitched a scoreless 6th inning. This was it for Bradenton pitchers before power led to the game being suspended, it will be resumed at noon on Wednesday afternoon.

Henry Davis returned to action as he began a rehab assignment with the Marauders on Monday night. Serving as the team’s designated hitter, going 1-for-2 with a double and a run scored. Hopefully, Davis will be able to re-join Double-A Altoona sooner rather than later.
