Red Sox Minor Lines: Nicholas Northcut doubles thrice in Lowell’s season opener

Josh Ockimey, 1B: 1-4, 1 2B, 1 K

Kyle Hart: 7 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 0 BB, 5 K (99 pitches)

Pawtucket fell down 2-0 very early in this game after a two-run first inning from Indianapolis, but a big three-run seventh thanks to big swings from Witte and Chad De La Guerra gave them the win anyway. It was Hart on the mound who was most impressive, though, in a much-needed bounce-back outing. After tossing a complete game shutout in his first Triple-A appearance, the lefty struggled in piggy-back outings out of the bullpen in each of his last two outings.
