Bobby Dalbec, an infielder, starting in right field. Narcisso Crook, an outfielder, starting at first base. Nick Sogard at shortstop with Pablo Reyes, who’s played shortstop at the Major League level in the lineup. Jake Faria starting despite an ERA over 6. A lot of Cora-esque defensive variations made by Chad Tracy that left question marks swirling around my head actually turned out to work okay for the WooSox, as they continued taking the Syracuse Mets’ pitching staff to task. It was a home run derby off Nate Lavender in the first inning. It took one pitch of this game for Ceddanne Rafaela to drive one into left center and make the score 1-0; and before the end of the fourth inning, Nick Sogard, Ronaldo Hernandez, Enmanuel Valdez and Reyes all also had homers to make the score 8-0.
