Jacob Webb pitched a scoreless 7th & Wyatt Olds is in for Portland for the 1st time since his not very good FCL rehab stint.
Olds pitched a scoreless 8th with a walk & 2 strikeouts, but Portland still lost 7-5.

Pretty sure I already said all the interesting hitting things.

Salem added a 2nd run on an Alexis Hernandez groundout scoring Jhostynxon Garcia.

Jhostynxon came in on one of the odder defensive substitution changes, replacing Cutter Coffey who started at SS & moved to 3B.

Jhostynxon came in at CF.

Alexis Hernandez moved from CF to RF.

Albert Feliz moved from RF to LF.

Yorberto Mejicano moved from LF to 1B.

Lyonell James moved from 1B to 3B.

& Luis Ravelo who started at 3B had moved to SS.

Coffey was hit by a pitch. Not sure if that's what caused the chain reaction.

Brand also pitched a scoreless 9th, lowering his ERA to 1.11. Might be time for a promotion.

Politi let his Minor League Manfred Man score in the top of the 8th.
He had 2 strikeouts, but allowed an RBI single after the 1st one.

Ryan Fitzgerald struck out to start the Worcester inning. Manfred Man Abreu still on 2nd.

Stephen Scott groundout moves him to 3rd, but a bit late for productive baseball.

Ronaldo Hernandez pinch hits for Niko, but flies out to end the game.
