Third baseman Brandon Hicks also had a strong night for Gwinnett (54-43) with three hits, and shortstop Travis Pastornicky got his first hit since getting a promotion from Double-A Mississippi.

Christian Martinez pitched five innings for the G-Braves and allowed four runs and 11 hits. Gwinnett plays host to Louisville at 7:05 at Coolray Field.
