[Cesar Crespo]

Is there any reason Victor Acosta is in Greenville after holding his own in Salem last year over the course of 31 games? I know 31 games isn't huge, but it's the minors and he will be 22 in a month.

Ball blasted, Portland gets rumbled over 5-1.

Boxscore

Kyle Hart picks up the tough luck loss, giving up a run over six innings on five hits, five walks, and a hit by pitch; striking out five. Trey Ball yielded four runs on five hits, a walk, and a hit by pitch over two frames; whiffing a trio. Jordan Weems surrendered two hits and struck out one in the ninth.

Jeremy Rivera and Chad De La Guerra each reached twice in four jaunts with a hit and a walk; De La Guerra golfing a triple. Josh Ockimey and Luke Tendler each laced a single in three trips. Tony Renda and Tate Matheny each managed a single in four matchups. Danny Mars and Jhon Nunez each notched three unsuccessful at-bats. Cole Sturgeon suffered four futile forays.

Outfield depth in the organization. Simple as that. They have five outfielders in Salem... all of whom are older than Acosta.

These things tend to work themselves out though. I would expect Acosta (and potentially Cedrola) to be up in Salem in the second half of the season.

PawSox pile on the runs, slaughter Syracuse 12-2.

Pimentel putrid in relief, Salem downed 6-5 in 10.

Boxscore

Darwinzon Hernandez had a horrendous start, being pulled after only two outs; allowing two runs on a single and four walks. Jared Oliver was able to get the final out of the first, then went an additional four frames; surrendering a run on four hits, two walks, and a wild pitch; striking out six. Hunter Smith pitched three scoreless frames; walking one and whiffing a pair. Yankory Pimentel picked up the final two innings, allowing two earned in the ninth (to tie the game) and the ghost runner in the tenth. Yankory yielded four hits and a walk while striking out two.
