JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Five pitchers combined to shutout the Gwinnett Stripers as the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp secured their sixth straight win 2-0, Saturday night at VyStar Ballpark in front of 7,583 fans.

Jacksonville (20-6) wasted no time in game five of the series against Gwinnett (10-15). With two outs, Joe Mack (1) crushed a solo home run, giving the Shrimp an early 1-0 lead.

The Jumbo Shrimp extended their lead in the third. Following back-to-back outs, Jakob Marsee tripled and scored on a Maximo Acosta RBI single, extending Jacksonville's lead to two.

Janson Junk tossed 5.2 innings of shutout ball, striking out two and securing his third win of the season. Anderson Pilar, Christian Roa, Austin Roberts, and Seth Martinez twirled a combined one-hitter in relief in 3.1 innings of work.
