Morning reading: Biscuits drain champagne

"We're out of champagne, I guess," Kyeong Kang, after the Biscuits quickly celebrated a playoff berth with Saturday's 11-4 win over the Huntsville Stars.

The Biscuits have tied last year's team record with 53 triples, and Jake Thompson hopes to avoid a dubious mark in his final regular-season start today.

Saturday: Biscuits 11, Stars 4; Biscuits clinch playoff appearance

The Biscuits celebrated their first playoff berth since 2007 after Saturday's 11-4 win over the Huntsville Stars.

Combined with Jacksonville's 3-2, weather-shortened loss at Jackson, Montgomery clinched the Southern League's second-half South Division championship. The Biscuits will begin a best-of-5 semifinal series at Mobile on Thursday.

Matt Buschmann continued his late-season surge, posting his fifth straight quality start and his third straight game with at least seven innings. He gave up two runs on six hits.

Mike Sheridan hit a three-run home run to start Montgomery's scoring in the second inning and reached base five times. He singled and scored in the Biscuits' six-run fifth inning.

Kyeong Kang hit a two-run homer and Derek Dietrich a three-run blast to highlight the six-run outburst. Omar Luna reached base four times and scored three runs.

A football night at Riverwalk Stadium

The Biscuits are going head-to-head with both Auburn and Alabama football tonight. It's safe to say the Biscuits are losing that battle. This was taken after the national anthem and before the first pitch. Looks like a Troy game.
