Alright, so, "the distance" is only good for seven innings in this case, but it's as far as the rules would allow him to go with Pawtucket playing two. Good thing they had him around, too, because apparently nobody was feeling much like hitting in McCoy.

A lot of really empty days at the plate for the Red Sox, but the two or three guys who had halfway decent nights actually did quite well.

Salem L 4-7

Manuel Margot: 2-4, 2B

Wendell Rijo: 1-5

Manuel Margot strikeout count: 0

Greenville W 5-3

That needs some work.
