Tzu-Wei Lin, SS: 1-4, 1 BB, 1 R, 1 K
Well, hello there Cole. After tearing it up to start the year in Portland, Sturgeon struggled initially after being promoted to Pawtucket last month. It wasn’t terribly surprising, but there was some reason to believe he wouldn’t totally bounce back given how out-of-nowhere his Portland breakout was. Well, he’s been hitting much better of late and this two-homer game is an exclamation point on that. On the mound, Haley wasn’t overpowering on Sunday and it seems he was pretty hittable, but he somehow limited the damage. Seeing a pitcher be able to do that sometimes can actually be encouraging.
