Shuckers played host to the Pensacola Blue Wahoos in game two.
Biloxi drops this one 5-4, but let’s not let that overshadow another solid outing from Small just two weeks removed from that combined no-hitter. Shuckers Manager Mike Guerrero said, “The great thing about that night is that even you mentioned earlier about five walks is that he’s still competing and making good pitches and to have a good outcome. He had a good – his ability to make pitches when he needed to, and the guys behind him make all the plays and so that actually was a big part of it.”
Today was supposed to be opening day for the Biloxi Shuckers, 597 days after their last game.
Of course, thanks to Mother Nature, the longest off-season of all-time just got one day longer, but after overcoming a lost season due to COVID-19, Minor League Baseball is almost back on the Gulf Coast.

Names of Biloxi Shuckers past now realizing their stardom in the Show are the link to the pre-COVID past of Minor League Baseball on the Gulf Coast. Shuckers Manager Mike Guerrero said, “COVID is here. We know about it. We’ve just got to throw a no-hitter against him.”
On the eve of Minor League Baseball Opening Day, one of the best pitchers to ever come out of Mississippi State got a familiar assignment to begin his first full season as a professional.
Four hours due south of Dudy Noble Field in Starkville is MGM Park in Biloxi where Ethan Small is set to make his Double A debut with the Shuckers.

That puts him on the fast track to make his Major League debut, possibly as soon as this season, with a dominant 0.86 ERA across 21 minor league innings pitched in 2019.
Earlier that same year, Small came up very big for the Bulldogs, winning SEC Pitcher of the Year en route to their College World Series appearance.
