Sea Dogs Earn 4-3 Win Versus Red Sox
The Portland Sea Dogs racked up a win at Fenway Park, bumping off the Memphis Red Sox, 4-3. Walter Johnson, who started for Portland, pitched effectively for his team. Elmer Brown earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2.1 innings. He upped his record to 3-4. The Sea Dogs lead the AL Marvin Miller Division by 4½ games.

Portland used the timely hitting of Adrian Beltre to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Sea Dogs on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Beltre told the media after that game that the mood in the clubhouse is "extremely positive" after a win like that.
