SEA DOGS DROP EXTRA-INNINGS THRILLER TO YARD GOATS 3-1 With the Sea Dogs trailing the Yard Goats 1-0 entering the bottom of the sixth, they found a way to tie the game. Caden Rose led off the inning with a double and then scored on an RBI double from Mikey Romero to knot the game at 1-1. Romero's double extended his on-base streak to 11 straight games (June 27-present). With the game still tied after nine innings, the Yard Goats and Sea Dogs headed to extra innings. In the top of the 10th with Zach Kokoska starting the inning on second, an intentional walk was issued to Kyle Karros. In the next at-bat, Charlie Condon lined a go-ahead single to give Hartford a 2-1 lead. With runners on second and third, Juan Guerrero hit a sacrifice fly that brought in Karros to extend the Yard Goats lead to 3-1.

"DOES IT HAVE HITS IN IT?" - MIKEY ROMERO Sea Dogs middle infielder Mikey Romero has been steadily producing from the dish, currently riding an 11 game on- base streak (June 27-present) with four of those games being mulit-hit performances. The former first round pick (24th overall) by the Boston Red Sox in the 2022 MLB draft makes choices in his life based upon if it has hits in it. A walk-up song, a certain outfit, what he eats or listens to pregame, he will change parts of his lifestyle based upon his performance at the plate. As for right now... if it isn't broken, don't fix it.
