Rodriguez, who finished 7-for-8 on the day, belted a go-ahead home run in the eighth.
LRod's day included two doubles and two homers. He was not too long back a pretty well rated prospect. He's still only 24 and his avg is now at 286 after the big day. He still doesn't walk, only 3 compared to 23 strikeouts and that will keep him off the prospect lists.

Akron is playing early, and Mejia does it again. Hits a solo shot in the 1st. His 3rd homer in last 14 hours. Not Scooter Gennett but still damn good.

Victor Martinez type bat behind the plate coming for us...

Sea Dogs turn around and score 3 of their own to take lead. Pannone is not pitching again today. I don't get it, he was scheduled two days ago when it rained out. Maybe he warmed up hard before game was called and they decided to just have a bullpen session that day.

This Akron game was absolutely cRaZy.

So Akron scores 5 runs in the 8th to take an 8-5 lead. Then in btm of 8 Lineras, who has been great this year, blew it so spectacularly that it left a mushroom cloud. He allows 8 earned runs, and Portland scores 9 total to win the game 14-8.

Krieger went 1-4 with yet another double, his 4th in two days. He also had a stolen base.

Mejia was 2-5 with the 2 homers that was mentioned. 3 RBI.

Bradley 2-4 with a walk. And Chang the same, 2-4 with walk.
