Chang and Rizzo power Dogs




July 11 2010, Game #12,
A muggy rainy day at Hadlock Field. The Dogs had Casey Kelly on the hill on this afternoon. Going into the game Kelly had a 1-4 record with a 5.45 era. While the numbers are a little disapointing, the Portland righthander (who was a part time shortstop last season) Had a good afternoon pitching 5 1/3 innings giving up just 5 hits on 2 runs. While this is the first time he has been a full time pitcher in pro baseball his machanics and stuff are improving and perhaps could be in line for a promotion to triple A Pawtucket next season.
Offensivly for the Dogs Eastern League all star Ray Chang hit a solo homerun in the 2nd inning. In the 4th inning firstbasman Anothny Rizzo hit his 9th homerun for Portland since his promotion this spring. It was a good day all around for the Sea Dogs. Final score Portland 7, New Britian 3.
Next up: July 22 (back in Portland, Adrian Gonzalez bobble head night)
