The Montgomery Biscuits return to the playoffs for the fourth straight season. The Biscuits play the Jackson Generals, the same team they faced in the 2016 Southern League North Division Championship Series in which the Generals went on to win the title. The Biscuits clinched their spot in the playoffs via the North Division Second-Half Championship in which the organization posted a strong run in the second half with a record of 42-28.
In 2018, Montgomery has the fifth-most home runs in the league and leads the division in runs (699), triples (45), RBI's (655), and stolen bases (159).
