TIMELY HITTING LIFTS SEA DOGS OVER CURVE 2-1 The Portland Sea Dogs (14-15, 48-48) beat the Altoona Curve (17-13, 47-51) 2-1 on Thursday afternoon. Trailing Altoona 1-0 heading into the bottom of the third, Portland's offense jumpstarted. Marvin Alcantara worked a leadoff walk and then moved to third on a fielder's choice coupled with a missed catch error that allowed Karson Simas to reach base. The next batter Mikey Romero ripped an RBI single to tie the game at 1-1. James Tibbs III followed with a go-ahead RBI single that plated Simas to give the Sea Dogs a 2-1 lead.

GOODBYES ARE HARD The Boston Red Sox made one big move yesterday before the trade deadline ended by acquiring Dodgers RHP Dustin May in exchange for Boston's fifth and 29th overall prospects, Portland Sea Dogs outfielders Zach Ehrhard and James Tibbs III. Ehrhard slashed .227/.305/.412 with 13 doubles, one triple, and was tied for the team-high in home runs with eight over 58 games. Tibbs III hit .207 with two doubles, one triple, and one home run while adding seven RBI.

TAKE IT TO THE MAX Sea Dogs utility man Max Ferguson extended his hitting streak to six straight games (7/24-present) after going 1-3 in Thursday afternoon's win. Over the six-game stretch, he scored three runs while hitting .389 (7-for-18) with a double, two home runs, nine RBI, and has drawn three walks. On the season, Ferguson is now tied with Allan Castro for the team-high of active players in home runs with seven.
