Almost There: Portland On Cusp of R2 Triumph After 10-7 Win
The Portland Sea Dogs moved to within one game of the Round 3 today, downing the visiting Baltimore Black Sox at Griffith Stadium by a score of 10-7. Sea Dogs catcher Joe Mauer did some major damage. He went 2-3 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The win gives the Sea Dogs a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-7 Round 2.

In the bottom of the first, Portland second baseman Rogers Hornsby had a productive at-bat. With runners on 1st and 2nd and one out, Hornsby stroked a 2-run double to center. It made the score 4-2, Portland. For the game, he went 1 for 4 with a double. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

"I'm just trying to make good contact," said Hornsby, "one at-bat at a time."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Griffith Stadium in Portland.
