The IronPigs (37-50) play Game 2 of a three-game set -- and Game 2 of a six-game, home-and-home series -- against the fourth-place Pawtucket Red Sox (38-49) at Coca-Cola Park... With a 9-6 win last night, the Pigs have won eight of their last 10 games and 12 of their last 17 affairs against North Division opponents. In fact, Lehigh Valley is 16-9 in the last 25 contests after dropping 15 of 18 games from May 24 to June 11... The Paw Sox -- Boston's top affiliate -- have dropped a season-high, nine consecutive games, their longest losing streak since a nine-game skid in 2012 (June 18-26). In addition, the Sox are just 6-19 since June 16 and 20-39 since reaching their high-water mark of 18-10 on May 7... The Pigs and Sox hadn't played since the opening series of 2015, when Pawtucket took three-of-four at Coca-Cola Park from April 9-12.

LHP Jesse Biddle (7-2, 4.24 in AA) will make his Triple-A debut for LHV against RHP Joe Kelly (0-1, 2.77).
