Minor Lines 8/22: Portland Wins as Rest of Farm Wallows in Big Innings and Errors

Hoo boy this isn’t how you want to see things go down.

Leading 7-1 in the bottom of the ninth, Worcester somehow gave away the game. It was the 15th time this season that Worcester was on the wrong side of a walk-off at-bat.

Worcester had a big second inning, scoring five runs. Niko Kavadas and Bobby Dalbec bookended the inning with RBI singles, while David Hamilton exploded for a three-run home run. Cedanne Rafaela was 2-4 on the night with a stolen base.

Brandon Walter started and had a typically strong outing since being sent down from the majors.
