Drohan struck out the side in the 1st.

Listening to the SoxProspects pod today, they were talking a lot about Drohan. They were saying he's been much better in the 1st 2 innings then falling off, & he seems to be falling into similar issues as Chris Murphy & might be best used in MLB in a similar role.

Ian was also talking about his pitch mix & how he's trying to throw 5 pitches including a cutter & a slider that are too similar & that he probably just needs to pick one.
Lead off walk in the 2nd, but he got Franchy to GIDP & added a 4th strikeout.

Ramirez pitched a 1-2-3 1st with a strikeout for Salem. JOHANFRAN to lead off the 2nd.

JDE still not pitching well.

Lyonell James single scores 2 more. A bit confused if he got thrown out at 2nd going for a double or not.

But either way, 3-0.

Gamecast is giving some conflicting information.

Either way, Alcantara scored on a wild pitch, 4-0.

Pretty sure that's going to be it for Drohan as he's up to 95 pitches (61 strikes).

If so, his final line would be:

6 innings
0 runs
3 hits
1 walk
10 strikeouts
