AUGUST 29th LEHIGH VALLEY (80-54) at PAWTUCKET (64-69) 7:05 pm

Lehigh Valley IronPigs RHP Enyel De Los Santos (10-4, 2.43) vs. RHP (2-1, 4.32)

Tragic Number is 1 - The Pawtucket Red Sox host the Northern Division Champion Lehigh Valley IronPigs (AAA-Philadelphia) in the middle game of their 3-game series tonight at 7:05 pm at McCoy Stadium. Last night in the series opener, the IronPigs scored 6 unearned runs in the top of the 9th to snap a 3-3 tie en route to as 9-3 victory. As a result, Pawtucket now trails in the wild card race by 5½-games with 6 games so one more PawSox loss or one more Indianapolis win would officially eliminate the Sox from playoff contention for the 4th year in a row. The PawSox had qualified for post-season play in four straight years (2011-14) but are now in danger of four consecutive non-playoff years (2015-18). It would be Pawtucket’s longest playoff drought since a five year stretch from 1998-2002 when the Sox failed to make the IL Playoffs.

A Wild Race Indeed - Lehigh Valley, who clinched their first-ever IL North division title at home this past weekend with a walk-off winner vs. Scranton/WB, can’t make any post-season travel arrangements quite yet as they must still await their playoff foe for a semi-final series that will begin one week from tonight at the eventual wild card winner. The first two games will be played in either Indianapolis, Toledo, Scranton/WB, Norfolk, Gwinnett, or - in the longest of longshots - Pawtucket before the best of 5 series shifts to Allentown for the final three game as necessary over the weekend. The IL wild card race is among the best in all of right now as Indianapolis currently leads but by just a ½-game over fellow IL West foe Toledo, 1-game over Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, 1½- games over Norfolk, 3½-games up on Gwinnett, and 5½-games over the PawSox.

Six Pack - The PawSox – who had their 3-game winning streak snapped last night but have still won 12 of their last 20 games - are down to just 6 games remaining in 2018 (4 here at home and 2 on the road) while the IronPigs, owners of the best record in the entire IL, also have 6 regular-season games left. The clubs will conclude this series and Pawtucket’s penultimate homestand of the season tomorrow at 7:05 pm on Team Poster Night at McCoy (fans will allowed on the field for photos and autographs with the players from 5:00 – 6:00 pm).

Six out of Six – Pawtucket needs to win each of their 6 remaining games to finish above .500. Since they are only playing 139 games this season they can not finish exactly at .500 so winning all 6 would put them at 70-69. The PawSox are currently 64-69 – on Monday they were 4-games below .500 which was the closest they had been to .500 since August 17 (59-63). They have not been within 3-games of the .500 mark since all the way back on July 17 (at 45-48).

Red Sox Rehabbers at McCoy – Three key members of the , all currently on the Red Sox disabled list, have begun injury rehab assignments with the PawSox this week. Steven Wright, who has been on the DL since June 23 with left knee inflammation (related to his knee surgery a year ago May), started for Pawtucket last night and tossed 2 hitless innings. Wright is 2-1 with a 3.38 ERA in 10 games (4 starts) for Boston this season (from May 15 – June 22) and is 0-0 with a 4.30 ERA in 4 games (2 starts) during a rehab assignment with the PawSox from April 20 – May 11.

Rehabbing Red Sox Christian Vazquez was behind the plate for the PawSox last night going 0-for-3. He is slated to DH and bat third for the PawSox tonight and then catch tomorrow night. He has been on the Sox DL since July 8 with a fractured right pinky finger suffered on a head-first slide while stealing 2nd base on July 7 in Kansas City. Vazquez, who went 1-for-2 with a SF while catching rehabbing Red Sox LHP Eduardo Rodriguez on Monday night in Portland, was hitting .213 in 60 games (59 as catcher) for Boston with 3 HR & 14 RBI. He was coming off a fine June, however, when he batted .298 during the month.

Tonight the Red Sox will send 3B to Pawtucket to play at McCoy tonight (batting second and playing third) and possibly beyond. Devers has had three stints on Boston’s disabled list this season with this most recent coming on August 16 when he was placed on the DL with a recurring left hamstring strain. Rafael has also been on the DL from July 11-21 with left shoulder inflammation and from July 29 – August 8 with the left hamstring strain. In 102 games for the Red Sox this season (100 at 3rd base) he is batting .242 with 22 doubles, 16 HR & 55 RBI. He also rehabbed for one game with (short-A) Lowell on August 6 and went 1-for- 4 with a 2- HR in that game and then rejoined the Red Sox on August 8 for six games before going back on the DL. NEXT ON TAP - The probable pitching match-up for the remainder of the series vs. Lehigh Valley at McCoy:

Thur. 7:05 pm RHP Jerod Eickhoff (0-0, 1.32) vs. RHP (6-8, 3.89)

The probable pitching match-ups for the upcoming series in Moosic, PA vs. Scranton/WB and then back at McCoy:

Fri. 7:05 pm @ SWB TBA vs. RHP (7-9, 3.93) Sat. 6:35 pm @ SWB TBA vs. RHP (10-7, 3.39) Sun. 6:15 pm @ PAW (myRITV) TBA vs. TBA Mon. 1:35 pm @ PAW TBA vs. TBA

Not Much Left – After tomorrow night’s series and homestand finale, the PawSox will travel to Moosic, PA to play a pair of games against Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday at 7:05 pm and Saturday at 6:35 before quickly returning to McCoy to host the RailRiders (Yankee affiliate) for the final two games of the season on Sunday evening at 6:15 pm (with post-game fireworks) and Labor Day Monday at 1:35 pm.

PawSox Chase the Pigs – Pawtucket trails front-running Lehigh Valley by 15½-games in the IL North and some of that deficit can certainly be traced to the fact that the IronPigs have won 11 of the first 15 meetings between the clubs this year. Pawtucket is hitting just .210 in the 15 games vs. Lehigh Valley this season (97-for-462) with 6 HR (2 by and 1 each from Castillo and De Jesus among active PawSox). Pawtucket has scored only 32 runs total in the 15 games vs. the Pigs (2.1 runs/game). They have been once, held to 1 run in six games (including a 1-0 win on May 27), limited to 2 runs three times (including in a 2-1 win on June 15), 3 runs twice, scored 4 runs twice, and 6 runs once (in a 6-1 win on May 28). PawSox are 4-11 with a 3.89 ERA vs. the IronPigs (54 ER in 125 IP). The Pigs have out-scored the Sox by a 65-32 margin in the season-series thus far.

Pitching in for Offense – Back in early-August, Pawtucket took over the International League lead in Team Pitching when they surpassed Rochester. The PawSox had remained on top of the league until the last weekend in August when the Red Wings moved back ahead. However, the PawSox are back on top as they are currently 1st with their 3.45 ERA ahead of Rochester at 3.47. Pawtucket has also gone on a big upswing this month offensively and they are now all the way up to 7th in the IL with their Team Batting average of .252 (a season-high).

Records are Made to be Broken – PawSox pitchers have already established a new franchise-record for Most in a season as Sox hurlers have 1177 strikeouts on the year (previous record was 1118 SO in 2011). Two other club-records to keep an eye on come in the “fewest” category. Pawtucket has 10 triples this season…their record for fewest triples is 12 in 2015. And PawSox pitchers have just one this season (Mike Shawaryn a 7-inning CG on August 14 in G2 vs. Norfolk). The team mark for fewest CG is 1 set in both 2005 & 2011.

Battling for a Batting Title – PawSox All-Star outfielder Rusney Castillo currently has an 8 point lead in the International League batting race as he looks to become the first Pawtucket player to win the IL Batting Title in 37 years…since Wade Boggs hit .335 in 1981. Rusney, who is hitting .323 on the season, has the lead in the race over of Lehigh Valley who is at .315 with six games remaining for both players. Castillo (150) also leads the league in hits over Meneses (147). Rusney is bidding to join some select company and become the 6th PawSox player to win the IL Batting Championship following…Juan Beniquez (.298 in 1973), (.337 in 1974), Wayne Harer (.350 in 1977 – the highest batting average in PawSox history), Garry Hancock (.325 in 1979), and Boggs (.335 in 1981).

Furthermore, Castillo’s 150 hits are already the most by a PawSox player in a single-season in 10 years since INF Joe Thurston had 160 hits in 2008. The club-record for Most Hits in a season is 169 set by Dave Stapleton in 1979. Only four PawSox players have ever led the league in hits in a season…Mike Cummings in 1973 (139 hits), Stapleton in 1979 (169), Boggs in 1981 (167), and Thurston in 2008 (160). Rusney also has 115 singles and is just six shy of matching Glenn Hoffman’s franchise-mark of 121 singles set in 1979.

August Moon – Pawtucket has posted some fine numbers in August with three games to go in the month. The Sox are batting .286 in the first 26 games this month (260-for-908) with 17 HR & 120 runs scored. The PawSox hit .233 in April, .227 in May, .258 in June, and .251 in July. Sox pitchers in August are 16-10 with a 3.09 ERA (78 ER in 227.1 IP).

Night Owls – The PawSox are 5-games under .500 this year but they are over .500 at night posting a 49-48 record in night games this season compared to 15-21 in day games. The Sox have just one day game remaining…Labor Day Monday vs. Scranton/WB (1:35 pm) in the season-finale.

More Hits and More Runs – The PawSox have out-hit their opponents on the season by a wide margin (1120 hits to 1081) and have been out-scored by the opposition by just six runs on the year (Sox have scored 519 runs and allowed 525 runs).

Road Getting Smoother – The PawSox have won 9 of their last 12 road games since August 9 and are now 30-37 on the road – they had the worst away mark in the league until this recent road surge. They had dropped 15 of their previous 20 on the road between June 26 – August 8. The Sox have won 10 of their last 19 games at home dating back to July 14. Pawtucket was a season-high 5- games over .500 on August 4 and they are now 34-32 at McCoy.

What Have You Done for Me Lately – The PawSox are 16-11 since August 1 after going 3-11 in their previous 14 games between July 17-31. Included during that stretch was a season-high 6-game losing streak from July 17-22. Their recent 4-game winning streak (August 9-12) marked the first time they had been able to win more than two in a row since a 3-game winning streak from July 14-16.

2018 Season-Series vs. Lehigh Valley – The PawSox trail the season-series vs. the IronPigs by an 11-4 count (3-5 at McCoy and finishing 1-6 at Lehigh Valley). The clubs split an abbreviated 2-game series in Pawtucket to begin the 2018 season. Opening Night was snowed-out on April 6, the next (Opening) day Lehigh Valley was a 3-1 winner. The Sox gained the split with a 4-3 victory in the series finale on April 8. Lehigh Valley swept a 3-game series in Allentown, PA from May 7-9 in what, at the time, was a battle for 1st-place in the IL North. The Pigs out-scored the Sox, 11-2 in the series. The IronPigs won the first two games by identical 4-1 scores and then capped the sweep with a 3-0 victory in the finale on the morning of May 9. The teams met for a 5-game series in Pawtucket towards the end of May (May 25-28)…Lehigh Valley won the first 3-games of that set by scores of 6-4, 6-3, and 6-2, to improve to 7-1 vs. the PawSox, but the Sox rebounded to win the final two games of the series, 1-0 behind William Cuevas and 6-1 with Chandler Shepherd the winner. The Pigs got the jump in their last meeting back from June 14-17 for a 4-game set racing to an early lead in an 8-1 victory in the opener. The Sox won the next night, 2-1 but Lehigh Valley took the series outright with 8-1 and 3-2 triumphs in the final two meetings more than two months ago. The IronPigs scored 6 unearned runs in the top of the 9th last night to win the opener of this current series, 9-3.

Recently vs. the IronPigs –The PawSox – who lost the season-series to the IronPigs last year by a 7-10 margin - had reversed their fortunes against Lehigh Valley the prior three years…the teams split the season-series in 2016 at 9-9 but Pawtucket won the season- series over the IronPigs in both 2015 (10-8) and in 2014 (11-5) – that after going 5-11 vs. Lehigh Valley in 2013.

Low Point – The PawSox (now at 64-69) were a season-low 10-games below .500 on July 31 and August 2 (49-59) for the first time in almost three years since they ended the 2015 season with a 59-85 record.

Sad Endings - The PawSox lost a game in the opponent’s final at-bat 10 times between July 17 – August 8. Pawtucket had suffered just 5 losses in the final at-bat of a game previously during their first 92 games of the season. During that span the Sox lost games in the bottom of the 11th-inning, bottom of the 9th, bottom of the 8th, bottom of the 9th, bottom of the 10th, top of the 10th, bottom of the 13th, bottom of the 12th, top of the 9th, and bottom of the 8th. Overall this season, the Sox have lost 16 games during the opposition’s last AB while winning 11 times during their own last AB (6 walk-offs).

Left at the Altar – The PawSox lead the league with 969 runners left on base this season for an average of 7.3 LOB per game. The club-record is 1121 LOB in 2005 in 144 games (or an average of 7.8 per game).

Series Business – The PawSox – down 0-1 in this 3-game set vs. Lehigh Valley - are 16-20-6 in their 42 series this season (16 wins, 20 losses, and 6 splits). They have posted four 3-game sweeps along with a 2-game sweep and a 1-game sweep (in Rochester on July 4). The PawSox have been swept in a series four times this season (suffering three 3-game sweeps and a 2-game sweep).

North Face – Pawtucket is 38-45 vs. their IL North rivals. They finished 13-11 vs. the IL West and 13-13 vs. the IL South.

Bye to July - The PawSox concluded July with a 10-16 record in which they battled in a wave of close games. Pawtucket finished the month 2-9 in one-run games, 1-4 in , and lost 7 games in the opponents’ final at-bat in July. It marked their third consecutive losing month...they went 11-10 in April, but then 13-17 in May, 14-15 in June, and 10-16 in July. The Sox batted .251 in July with 15 HR in 26 games while posting a 3.54 ERA.

Last Tune in June – The PawSox – due to a 5-game losing skid to end the month of June – finished with a losing record in June at 14- 15. They hit .258 with 27 HR in 29 games during the month along with a 3.41 ERA.

A Hectic May - The PawSox finished an extremely busy May with a 13-17 record for the month. The topsy-turvy travel month included four different homestands and four different roadtrips. Pitchers posted a 3.60 ERA in May while batters hit .227 with 22 HR and 97 runs in 30 May games (for an average of 3.2 runs per game). The Sox played 30 games in 31 days in May with just one scheduled off-day (May 17) during the entire month.

April Comes up a Winner – The PawSox posted a winning April for the 6th time in the last 8 years as they finished the month with an 11-10 record and in 2nd-place in the IL North (-2 GB of front-running Syracuse at the time). Pawtucket has had just one losing month of April since 2010 and that came last year (10-12). The Sox hit .233 in April with 16 HR in 21 games while pitchers were 11-10 with a 3.51 ERA along with a league-leading 230 strikeouts in 190 innings.

Sox hurlers have posted games of 20 (April 9), 18 (April 20 & July 8), 15 (three times), 14 (three times), 13 (seven times), 12 (eight times), 11 (six times), and 10 (16 times) this season.

Defensive – Last year the PawSox led the International League with a .987 fielding pct. while making a league-low 64 errors on the season (both new franchise-records). This season the Sox are 12th in the league with a .979 fielding pct. (99 errors in 4650 total chances).

Blanketed – The PawSox have been shutout 13 times this season (8-13)…Rochester (11-14) has been blanked the most in the league. Pawtucket was blanked 9 times total in 2017. They went 18-9 in shuout games last year.

A Look Back Before We Go Forth – Pawtucket finished 67-75 last year and in 4th-place in the IL North for the second straight season.

PAWSOX PLAYER MOVES – The Boston Red Sox today sent 3B Rafael Devers to Pawtucket on an injury rehab assignment.

The PawSox have been involved in 61 player moves since July 22. The Sox are at the roster limit with 25 active players as rehabbing pitchers & Steven Wright, catcher Christian Vazquez, and 3B Rafael Devers do not count against the active roster. Pawtucket has used 57 different players this season (28 position players & 29 pitchers) – Devers will make that number 58 which will be three more than the amount they employed last year (28 pitchers & 27 position players). The club-record is 70 players used in both 1995 and 2006.

More on the rehabbers…

Wright, who underwent cartilage restoration surgery on his left knee on May 8, 2017, has spent time in Pawtucket in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, and again in 2018. He is 23-15 with a 3.90 ERA in 65 games (44 starts) in the big leagues all with Boston (142 ER in 327.2 IP). Steven was named to the 2016 American League All-Star Team and finished that year with a 13-6 record and a 3.33 ERA in 24 starts for the Red Sox. His ERA was 10th best in the American League and his 4 complete games ranked tied for 3rd in all of . Originally a member of the organization, he spent his first four years in the minor leauges as a traditional pitcher before converting to a pitcher at the beginning of the 2011 season.

Vazquez had a terrific 2017 season with Boston batting .290 in 99 games with 5 HR & 32 RBI. He has thrown out 40% of runners attempting to steal in his Major League career (50 CS in 126 attempts) which puts him among the leading in MLB since 1987 (minimum 200 games). Christian missed the entire 2015 season recovering from Tommy John surgery performed on his right elbow. He split time between Pawtucket (.270 in 42 games) and Boston (.227 in 57 games) during his comeback season of 2016.

Devers, who at the age of 21 is one of the youngest players in all of , was indeed the youngest active player in the majors when he made his big league debut on July 25 of last season in Seattle. That promotion came after a quick and successful 9-game stint with the PawSox when he hit .400 with 2 HR after joining the PawSox that July 14th. He made an immediate impact with Boston belting 8 homers in his first 20 Major League games to become the first player ever to do so before turning 21-years-old. Devers was selected as a league All-Star in each of his first four pro seasons from 2014-2017 before earning the call-up to Boston.

Infielder Tzu-Wei Lin became the first player promoted from Pawtucket to Boston this season (not including rehabbing players) on April 10 before rejoining Pawtucket on May 8, returning to Boston on June 23, back with Pawtucket (July 2), again in Boston (July 12), back with the PawSox (July 25), to Boston again on July 29, and back with Pawtucket on August 1. Marcus Walden was #2 following his quick recall on April 12 and then another recall on May 2 (he came off the PawSox DL on July 25). became the third call-up on May 4 – he later returned to Pawtucket, went back to Boston (May 15), back again with the PawSox, to Boston (June 2), returned to Pawtucket (June 7), back to Boston (July 14), and now with the PawSox (July 22). 1B/OF Sam Travis became the fourth call-up on June 2, returned to the the PawSox on June 12, back to Boston on July 13 and now back to Pawtucket on July 16. RHP was next on June 5 and spent almost two months with the Red Sox before being optioned on July 26, recalled on July 31, optioned on August 12 (added Aug. 14), and then recalled again on August 18. LHP followed on June 6 (returned to Pawtucket on June 8, recalled to Boston on July 10, back with the PawSox on July 11, and traded to Tampa Bay on July 25). RHP Justin Haley was the next call-up to Boston on June 8, was optioned on June 19, recalled to Boston again on June 26, and optioned back to Pawtucket on July 2. LHP was promoted to Boston on June 19 but was optioned to Pawtucket on June 23 before another promotion to Boston on July 11, and now optioned to Pawtucket on July 16. RHP William Cuevas was promoted to Boston on July 2, optioned back on July 4, recalled again on July 8, optioned on July 10, recalled as the Red Sox 26th man for their August 11 doubleheader, and optioned on August 12 (added on August 15). Reliever was selected to Boston on July 8. On August 3 catcher was selected to the Red Sox roster and was added to the PawSox roster on August 16. On August 4 INF became the 12th different player promoted from Pawtucket to Boston (and the next night he scored the winning run in the bottom of the 10th-inning as a pinch runner to cap the Red Sox 4-game sweep of the Yankees at Fenway). Renda returned to Pawtucket on August 9.

The PawSox have employed 11 different Red Sox players on a rehab assignment already this season…LHP (twice but now back with Boston), RHP Steven Wright (three times), LHP Bobby Poyner (optioned to Pawtucket, recalled again to Boston, and now back with the PawSox), INF (returned to Boston), RHP Tyler Thornburg (three times but now in Boston), INF/OF (back with Boston), 2B (back on the Red Sox DL), RHP Austin Maddox (twice), RHP Hector Velazquez (returned to Boston), and now catcher Christian Vazquez and 3B Rafael Devers.

It was another busy player movement year in 2017. The PawSox were involved in 221 player transactions during the 2017 season. Pawtucket employed 55 different players last season (28 pitchers & 27 position players). They had 18 different players promoted to Boston during the 2017 season (not including rehabbing players).
