Pawtucket L 2-5 (In 7)
Jeremy Hazelbaker: 1-4, SB
Will Middlebrooks: 0-4, K, E
Xander Bogaerts: 2-3
Here come the hits for Xander Bogaerts. He's got two in each of his last three games, bringing his average up to a nice .270. The rest of his triple slash remains good, of course, since he's been walking and homering with some regularity to begin with.
Portland L 1-2
Garin Cecchini: 1-3, BB
Michael ALmanzar: 0-4, K
Travis Shaw: 0-3, K
Kolbrin Vitek: 0-3, K
Does this count as a slump for Garin Cecchini? I think this qualifies. That was when he goes 3-4 tomorrow the Red Sox can stop pretending like his 16 games aren't a good basis for promotion.
Salem W 7-6 (In 10)
Henry Ramos: 3-6, 2B, K
Deven Marrero: 1-6
Keury De La Cruz: 2-5, BB
Brandon Jacobs: 2-4, 2B, BB, K
Blake Swihart: 2-3, 2 BB
Cody Koback: 0-5, K
Something something something Henry Ramos something something Blake Swihart. Salem certainly doesn't have the system's most exciting names on the whole, but it does have some of the most consistent results these days.
Lowell L 3-4
Tzu-Wei Lin: 0-4, BB, 2 K, SB
Manuel Margot: 0-2, BB, K
Williams Jerez: 0-3, K
Jamie Callahan: 5 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 5 K
Jamie Callahan doesn't have bad games. He just has mediocre games and then at the end of the day not enough else dragging his season numbers up. At least not yet.
GCL Red Sox L 1-2
Jon Denney: 0-3, BB, 2 K
Jordon Austin: 0-2, BB, K
They're not all gonna be easy, Mr. Denney.
