Red Sox Minor Lines: Miguel Bleis reintroduces himself

"In yet another bullpen game, the WooSox kept Buffalo ( Blue Jays AAA) off the scoreboard despite using six pitchers. Everyone was in lockstep, and the Bison managed just three hits on the night. The WooSox matched that total just in their extra base hits, and Nathan Hickey hit his third home run of the season out of the nine-hole to get Worcester on the board and in the lead for good."

"Just as the Sea Dogs walked off the Yard Goats ( Rockies AA) earlier in the week, this time, it was the home team's turn to capitalize on a blown save. Michael Sansone had a very tough second inning but recovered well and kept it a tie game through 5. This was thanks to Brooks Brannon and Miguel Bleis each going yard in the first inning."

"Now, I'm not saying that Bleis is suddenly going to become an organizational factor again, as this game pulled him only just barely back over the Mendoza line, but it's good to know that revered power still exists somewhere. There was no power, or even much contact, from either side to speak of for the vast majority of this game; after no scores from the third inning all the way to the eighth, Max Ferguson had an RBI knock with two outs in the top of the ninth, and then Cooper Adams got walked off by allowing two runs."

"After losing eight consecutive games including five with Bowling Green ( Rays High-A) in town, the Drive finally got in the W column despite giving up ten runs on fourteen hits. The offense was aided by some usual suspects who remained hot even through the losing streak; Mason White hit his eighth home run of the season and Justin Gonazales had his sixth, a three-run shot to put Greenville up 12-3. Bowling Green would threaten to bring this drought to an end and get this to within two runs, but on Sunday, a dozen runs was enough to come away with the W."

Worcester kept Buffalo off the scoreboard using six pitchers, limiting the Bison to three hits. Worcester matched that total through extra-base hits, with Nathan Hickey hitting a third home run of the season from the nine-hole to take the lead for good. In Connecticut, the home team capitalized on a blown save after Michael Sansone struggled in the second inning but settled to keep a tie through five. Brooks Brannon and Miguel Bleis homered in the first inning. Most of the game produced little power or contact until late, when Max Ferguson drove in a run in the ninth and Cooper Adams allowed two runs on a walk-off. The series in Connecticut ended 3-3, with four one-run decisions. Greenville ended a losing streak with a win powered by Mason White’s eighth home run and Justin Gonazales’s three-run shot, while Bowling Green threatened late but fell short.
