Double-A Portland Sea Dogs

Final Score: Reading Fightin’ Phils 2, Sea Dogs 1

Notable Pitchers:

Williams Jerez (1.2 IP, 2 H, 0 R)

Simon Mercedes (2.1 IP, 2 H, R, ER, 4 K)

Notable Position Players:

Carlos Asuaje (2-4)

Manuel Margot (0-4)

Henry Ramos (1-4, 3B)

• Ramos makes his triumphant return to the Sea Dogs after an injury-riddled start to the year and spending the last couple of weeks in the lower minors on a rehab assignment. The well-rounded outfielder has a chance to make an impact on the Red Sox as a bench player within the next few years and this is a good start as he knocks a triple in his first game back.

Sam Travis (1-3, BB)
