Worcester: L, 3-6 (BOX S<\/a>C<\/a>ORE<\/a>)\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Twin Red Wings (Nationals <\/a>AAA) home runs late in the game made the WooSox the only loser in the organization on Friday, and it\u2019s also a shame that the first of those home runs was a direct response to a long ball Jason Delay<\/a> hit in the top of the frame to pull the WooSox within one. The bottom of the WooSox lineup each reached base twice and Vinny Capra<\/a> went 3-for-5, but earlier in the game, Raymond Burgos, who\u2019s turned into a multi-inning work horse, kind of wore a tough start and was pulled in the fourth inning. Overall, the WooSox were peppered when they really couldn\u2019t have afforded to be and it cost them. <\/p>\n

Portland: W, 13-12 (F\/10) (BOX SCORE<\/a>)\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

The Sea Dogs almost had it locked up in Lehigh Valley (Phillies<\/a> AA) especially after adding an insurance run to go up 12-9 heading into the bottom of the ninth, but the Phils locked it back up at 12 when Cooper Adams let a home run up. From the jump, both teams had the pitching figured out: Hayden Mullins and Cade Feeney combined for nine runs allowed and three home runs, and the game had thirty-one total hits. The good news: Portland didn\u2019t have to wait long to stave the Phils off after blowing that save, and they had eighteen of those thirty one hits. Johanfran Garcia continues raking with another home run and Miguel Bleis reintroduced himself, if only for a night, with two doubles and a home run. That home run was thought to be the first turning point in the game, moving Portland\u2019s expected winning percentage from just over 35 percent to 85 percent. Of course, the result had to wait, but Portland won nonetheless, thanks in large part to a prospect who simply hasn\u2019t had the year many expected him to in 2026. I\u2019m not about to say one night of nine total bases will turn the whole season around for the 22-year-old outfielder, who\u2019s still batting just north of .200 with a 29% strikeout rate, but here\u2019s hoping it\u2019s the beginning of a second wind of sorts.<\/p>\n

Greenville: W, 10-5 (BOX SCORE<\/a>)\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Greenville also didn\u2019t pull any punches at the plate, as through two innings, they already had taken Winston-Salem (White Sox<\/a> High-A) for a six-run ride. This didn\u2019t keep Kyson Witherspoon from letting the Dash partially back into it, but he kept his own for the remainder of five satisfactory innings. Enddy Azocar is quietly (or not so quietly) proving that he is a bat to watch in the next couple of years: with a 3-for-4 night including a double Friday, he is now slashing .365\/.411\/.635 in 12 games since being called up from Salem. Azocar is quickly building onto his resume, spending the last year or so adding a bunch of muscle and adding onto that power tool. He\u2019s still quick and has a nice arm, too. Azocar is just 19 still, so I\u2019d expect him to stay in Greenville the rest of the season or enjoy a short call-up to Portland near the end before starting 2027 there, but right now, the sky is the limit if developed right.<\/p>\n

Salem: Cancelled<\/p>\n

Never to be made up, ending the Minor Lines abruptly just like the week seemingly did.
