Until it didn't (fly ball, sac fly, steal, double, 3-0).
Called strike 3 to end the first. 32 pitches, 1 whiff. He really needs his stuff to take another jump this offseason, he just doesn’t miss bats with his fastball and he doesn’t have the control right now to live 92-94 against advanced hitters.

Allowed a homer in the 2nd.

Grant Gambrell being much more efficient. 25 pitches, 19 strikes through 2 scoreless innings, 1 hit, 2 strikeouts.

Not sure why no JDE, & I'm pretty sure Cobb pitched a couple innings the other day.

Drohan done after 3 innings & 6 runs. I might have to start worrying about a thread title jinx soon.

Andrés Núñez pitched a scoreless 4th.

Worcester down 6-1.

Followed by a walk, a force out at 2nd (1st & 3rd 1 out), a strikeout & groundout.

Got out of the jam, Portland still up 2-1 headed to the 9th.

GabeJax allowed 3 hits & a run in his 1st inning of high-A work. He's no Felix Cepeda, but I expect he has it out of his system now.

Austin Wells jot a 3-run homer off Mosqueda & a grand slam off AJ Politi. It's a good thing he's not very good at fielding...

WooSox down 13-1.

He did not. He allowed another run in the 5th & left with the bases loaded & 1 out. Fortunately Caleb Bolden came in & induced a double play on his 2nd pitch to end the inning.

I'll assume they should have given him some time to settle in & he'll be fine next time, but this game...1.1 innings, 2 runs, 5 hits, 2 walks, 1 strikeout.

Cam Booser allowed a hit but pitched a scoreless 9th with 3 strikeouts.

Will be a tough comeback in the bottom of the 9th.

ROMAN led off the 7th with a triple. Coffey sac fly scores him, cuts deficit to 5-4 (Bolden allowed a run in the 6th).
