Pawtucket W 4-3
Shane Victorino: 1-4, 2B
Will Middlebrooks: 0-2
Travis Shaw: 0-3, BB
Alex Hassan: 1-3, HR, BB
Deven Marrero: 2-4, SB
Steven Wright: 8 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 1 HR
I never thought that I'd be chomping at the bit to get Alex Hassan into the majors halfway through July, but here we are. He's been hitting like a madman ever since his briefest of callups with homers in four straight games and an OPS of 1.397 in his last 10.
Portland L 2-3
Michael Almanzar: 1-4, HR, 2 K
Sean Coyle: 0-1, K
Portland L 4-7
Blake Swihart: 0-3, 2 K
Sean Coyle: 0-4, 2 K, E
Michael Almanzar: 2-3, 2B, BB
The hot bats in Portland have started to cool down in a big way. Neither Coyle nor Swihart have much to show for their recent efforts.
Salem L 3-5
Pat Light: 5 IP, 8 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 3 BB, 2 K
After three decent starts, Pat Light is back to giving up a bunch of runs.
Greenville L 4-6
Wendell Rijo: 0-3, BB, 2 K, E
Lowell L 3-4
Danny Mars: 1-3, BB, K
Sam Travis: 1-4
Nick Longhi: 1-4, 2B
Lowell W 11-2
Danny Mars: 3-5, 2B
Sam Travis: 3-6, 2B, K
Kevin McAvoy: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K
Six innings of three-hit ball out of the gate for McAvoy, which is not terribly surprising given his experience, but nice to see all the same.
GCL Red Sox L 2-4
Josh Ockimey: 2-4, 2B
Rafael Devers: 0-3, BB, 2 K
Michael Chavis: 0-4, 2 K
Michael Kopech: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 1 BB, 2 K
I have never seen a team struggle to get a game in as badly as the GCL Red Sox have of late. Rain, rain, rain. Good luck getting into a rhythm at the plate.
DSL Red Sox L 1-4
Luis Alexander Basabe: 1-3, BB
DSL Red Sox W 10-2
Luis Alexander Basabe: 3-5, 2B, 3B, BB
One awfully big game from Basabe, which gives his recent run of getting on base a bit of much-needed heft.
