Pawtucket L 7-11
Ryan Lavarnway: 3-5, 2B, HR, K
-He's not exactly had a "bat out of Hell" period to break out of a two-month slump, but Lavarnway is hitting a cool .360/.421/.720 in June with four homers.
Lars Anderson: 0-4, BB, 2 K
Alex Hassan: 1-4
Che-Hsuan Lin: 0-3, BB, A
Aaron Cook: 4 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 3 K
Alex Wilson: .2 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 0 K
Mark Prior: 1.1 IP, 1 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 4 K, 1 HR
-Nobody is invincible, but amidst the earned runs is another 1:1 K:Out night for Prior.
Jackie Bradley is an All-Star, but the game won't be after the jump until tomorrow.
Lowell W 2-1
Nathan Minnich: 0-3, 3 K
-Out of this year's draft class, Nathan Minnich is perhaps best compared to Chris McGuinness: big numbers even for a 1B, bad competition. Lowell should prove a decent testing ground.
Kendrick Perkins: 1-3, 2 K
Mookie Betts: 1-4, K, SB
Williams Jerez: 1-4, 2B, K
Oscar Perez: 1-3, 2B
Yunior Ortega: 3 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 2 K
GCL Red Sox L 2-3
The GCL roster is unbelievably dull this year outside of a couple of arms. Hopefully someone emerges with a strong performance.
Mario Alcantara: 3 IP, 2 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 3 K
