SEPTEMBER 2nd PAWTUCKET (66-71) at SCRANTON/WB (71-65) 6:35 pm Pawtucket Red Sox RHP Josh A. Smith (5-5, 4.16) vs. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders RHP Adonis Rosa (2-1, 3.71) It Takes Two to Tango – The Pawtucket Red Sox play their penultimate game of the 2018 season when they begin the back half of this important home and home series against the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (AAA-Yankees) tonight at 6:15 pm at McCoy Stadium (live on myRITV). The regular-season will conclude tomorrow with a Labor Day matinee at 1:35 pm at McCoy. The past two nights in Moosic, PA, the clubs split a 2-game set as the RailRiders held the Sox to 3 hits in a 3-1 victory on Friday but the PawSox gained the split by blanking Scranton/WB last night, 3-0 behind four pitchers…Josh D. Smith, winner Travis Lakins, Fernando Rodriguez, Jr., and save to Marcus Walden along with a 2-run HR by rehabbing 3B Rafael Devers. The Amazing Race - The RailRiders remain ever so slightly ahead in the IL wild card race as Scranton/WB (.5220) is 3 ten-thousandths of pct. points in front of both Columbus and Indianapolis (.5217). Scranton/WB will play two less games (138) than both Columbus and Indy (who will play the full 140) as the RailRiders had two games cancelled due to weather (one each in June & July). Thus, SWB can not end in a tie with any club for the wild card…even currentl IL West leader Toledo (by a ½-game over Columbus & Indianapolis) will only play 139 games. For Scranton/WB to clinch the wild card tonight they must beat the PawSox, have Toledo defeat Columbus (4:05 pm start), and have Indianapolis lose at Louisville (6:00 pm). Otherwise, the wild card berth will not be determined until the final day tomorrow. King for a Day (Maybe) – Former Bishop Hendricken standout pitcher Michael King will get the starting assignment for Scranton/WB tomorrow afternoon here at McCoy – unless the RailRiders clinch the wild card tonight (then it will be TBA for tomorrow). King, 23, has been impressive for Scranton/WB since joining the club in August going 3-0 with a 1.09 ERA in his first 5 starts. In 12 games with Double-A Trenton he went 6-2 with a 3.09 ERA after starting the year with Single-A Tampa (1-3, 1.79 in 7 GS). Originally drafted by Miami out of Boston College in the 12th round of the 2016 June draft, Michael was acquired by the Yankees in a trade on November 20, 2017. His father Jim King is a former news anchoes at WPRI TV-12 in Providence and is currently a Branch Sales Manager for Hershey’s Ice Cream which he distributes here at McCoy Stadium. Christmas Morning for Call-Ups – The traditional September 1st roster upheavel included 12 PawSox player moves yesterday. The Boston Red Sox recalled RHP William Cuevas (10-7, 3.39 in 23 GS), lefty relievers Bobby Poyner (0-0, 3.14 w/ 6 SV in 33 RA) and Robby Scott (3-3, 1.86 w/ 3 SV in 46 RA), INF/OF Tzu-Wei Lin (.307/5/25 in 68 games) and Sam Travis (.258/8/43 in 97 games) and made injury rehab recalls of RHP Steven Wright and catcher Christian Vazquez. Pawtucket added three pitchers from Double-A Portland in relievers RHP Trevor Kelley (1-1, 1.69 in 12 RA for the PawSox and 1-2, 3.82 in 28 RA for Portland), LHP Josh Taylor (acquired from Arizona for INF Deven Marrero just before the season – he was 2-5 with a 3.79 ERAS in 33 RA for the Sea Dogs), and RHP Jordan Weems (who appeared in one game for the Pawsox back on Jluyu 29 – 1 R in 3 IP – and in 34 RA for Portland was 4-3 with a 4.04 ERA). The PawSox yesterday also reinstated two players from the disabled list 1B Mike Ohlman (DL on August 15 with a left calf strain) and OF Cole Sturgeon (DL on August 23 with a left foot contustion). Wait ‘Til Next Year – On Wednesday, Pawtucket was officially eliminated from playoff contention for the 4th year in a row. The PawSox had qualified for post-season play in four straight years (2011-14) but now have four consecutive non-playoff years (2015-18). It marks Pawtucket’s longest playoff drought since a five year stretch from 1998-2002 when they failed to make the IL Playoffs.

The End of the Road - Pawtucket finished 31-38 on the road compared to their current 35-33 mark at home. The PawSox have actually hit better on the road this season winding up with a .252 road average (613-for-2432) with 51 HR compared to .248 (533-for-2146) with 49 HR at home thus far. Sox pitchers have fared better at McCoy, however, with a 3.40 ERA at home (226 ER in 599 IP) while finishing with a 3.44 ERA on the road (231 ER in 603.2 IP). NEXT ON TAP - The probable pitching match-up for the series and season-finale vs. Scranton/WB at McCoy Stadium: Mon. 1:35 pm RHP Michael King (3-0, 1.09) or TBA vs. RHP Mike Shawaryn (3-1, 4.06)

Look Out Below - The PawSox – who have won 5 of 8 and 14 of their last 24 games – can not finish at or above .500 this season as they are 66-71 with two games remaining. The Sox were 67-75 last season so this will mark the first time since 2009 & 2010 that they have finished below .500 in consecutive years. Rafel Devers Remaining Red Sox Rehabber – On Wednesday the Red Sox sent 3B Rafael Devers to Pawtucket. Wednesday night batting second and playing third he went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored. He was the DH Thursday night going 0-for-3 with a walk and run scored. Friday night at Scranton/WB he was 1-for-3 with an error playing 3B. And last night he played the full game at 3B and was 1-for-4 with a 2-run HR. Devers has had three stints on Boston’s disabled list this season with this most recent coming on August 16 when he was placed on the DL with a recurring left hamstring strain. Rafael has also been on the DL from July 11-21 with left shoulder inflammation and from July 29 – August 8 with the left hamstring strain. In 102 games for the Red Sox this season (100 at 3rd base) he is batting .242 with 22 doubles, 16 HR & 55 RBI. He also rehabbed for one game with (short-A) Lowell on August 6 and went 1-for-4 with a 2-run HR in that game and then rejoined the Red Sox on August 8 for six games before going back on the DL.

Devers, who at the age of 21 is one of the youngest players in all of Minor League Baseball, was indeed the youngest active player in the majors when he made his big league debut on July 25 of last season in Seattle. That promotion came after a quick and successful 9-game stint with the PawSox when he hit .400 with 2 HR after joining the PawSox that July 14th. He made an immediate impact with Boston belting 8 homers in his first 20 Major League games to become the first player ever to do so before turning 21-years-old. Devers was selected as a league All-Star in each of his first four pro seasons from 2014-2017 before earning the call-up to Boston.

August Moon – Pawtucket posted some fine numbers in August. Officially, the Sox batted .280 in 29 games during the month (281-for-1005) with 18 HR & 130 runs scored (4.5 runs/game). The PawSox hit .233 in April, .227 in May, .258 in June, and .251 in July. Sox pitchers in August were 17-12 with a 3.09 ERA (87 ER in 253.1 IP). Pitching in for Offense – Back in early-August, Pawtucket took over the International League lead in Team Pitching when they surpassed Rochester. The PawSox had remained on top of the league until the last weekend in August when the Red Wings moved back ahead. The Sox are now 2nd at 3.42 while Rochester currently leads with their 3.38 ERA. Pawtucket has also gone on a big upswing offensively and they are now 10th in the IL with their Team Batting average of .250 (they were 7th for the final week of August with a season-high average of .252). Records are Made to be Broken – PawSox pitchers have already established a new franchise-record for Most Strikeouts in a season as Sox hurlers have 1202 strikeouts on the year (previous record was 1118 SO in 2011). Two other club-records to keep an eye on come in the “fewest” category. Pawtucket has hit 10 triples this season…their record for fewest triples is 12 in 2015. And PawSox pitchers have just one complete game this season (Mike Shawaryn a 7-inning CG on August 14 in G2 vs. Norfolk). The team mark for fewest CG is 1 set in both 2005 & 2011. Battling for a Batting Title – PawSox All-Star outfielder Rusney Castillo currently has a 4 point lead in the International League batting race as he looks to become the first Pawtucket player to win the IL Batting Title in 37 years…since Wade Boggs hit .335 in 1981. Rusney, who is hitting .319 on the season, leads Joey Meneses of Lehigh Valley who is at .315 with two games remaining for both players. Castillo (151) now trails Meneses (152) for the league-lead in hits. Rusney is bidding to join some select company and become the 6th PawSox player to win the IL Batting Championship following…Juan Beniquez (.298 in 1973), Jim Rice (.337 in 1974), Wayne Harer (.350 in 1977 – the highest batting average in PawSox history), Garry Hancock (.325 in 1979), and Boggs (.335 in 1981). Furthermore, Castillo’s 151 hits are already the most by a PawSox player in a single-season in 10 years since INF Joe Thurston had 160 hits in 2008. The club-record for Most Hits in a season is 169 set by Dave Stapleton in 1979. Only four PawSox players have ever led the league in hits in a season…Mike Cummings in 1973 (139 hits), Stapleton in 1979 (169), Boggs in 1981 (167), and Thurston in 2008 (160). Rusney also has 115 singles and is just 6 shy of matching Glenn Hoffman’s franchise-mark of 121 singles set in 1979. Night Owls – The PawSox are 5-games under .500 this year but they are over .500 at night posting a 51-50 record in night games this season compared to 15-21 in day games. This evening is their last night game of the season while tomorrow their last day game! More Hits and More Runs – The PawSox have out-hit their opponents on the season by a wide margin (1146 hits to 1112) and have been out-scored by the opposition by just 4 runs on the year (Sox have scored 532 runs and allowed 536 runs). Road Got Smoother – The PawSox won 10 of their last 14 road games since August 9 and finished 31-38 on the road – they had the worst away mark in the league until their road surge to end the year. They had dropped 15 of their previous 20 on the road between June 26 – August 8. The Sox have won 11 of their last 21 games at home dating back to July 14. Pawtucket was a season-high 5-games over .500 on August 4 and they are now 35-33 at McCoy.

What Have You Done for Me Lately – The PawSox are 18-13 since August 1 after going 3-11 in their previous 14 games between July 17-31. Included during that stretch was a season-high 6-game losing streak from July 17-22. Their 4-game winning streak from August 9-12 marked the first time they had been able to win more than two in a row since a 3-game winning streak from July 14-16. Dynasties - The Red Sox and (especially the) Yankee Triple-A affiliates have “owned” the International League North Division over the past 13 seasons (including this year) as either Scranton/WB (9 times) or Pawtucket (2 times) has won the IL North regular-season pennant during 11 of those 13 years. The only other clubs to win the IL North during that span have been Syracuse in 2014 and Lehigh Valley this year. While Scranton/WB has earned 9 division titles, they finally won another Governors’ Cup Championship in September of 2016 to go with their only other Cup Championship in 2008. The RailRiders lost to Durham in the Cup Finals last season. Pawtucket has captured two Governors’ Cups in the last seven years and both came when the Sox qualified for the IL Playoffs as a wild card (2012 & 2014). When Last We Met – Until their 2-game set the past two nights in Moosic (3-1 RailRiders win and 3-0 PawSox victory), these teams had not faced each other for nearly 8 weeks since Scranton/WB took 2 of 3 from the PawSox at McCoy on the weekend of July 6-8. The RailRiders won the opener of that 3-game set, 3-2 before the PawSox evened matters with their 4-2 the next night. Scranton/WB won the rubber game on the afternoon of July 8, 3-2 despite 18 strikeouts by five different PawSox pitchers that day. The 2018 Season-Series vs. Scranton/WB – The season-series between these rivals is knotted at 8-8. The PawSox finished 3-4 in Moosic but they are 5-4 in Pawtucket. Stats vs. the RailRiders - Sox pitchers are 8-8 with a 3.24 ERA vs. Scranton/WB thus far (51 ER in 141.2 IP) while Sox hitters are batting .214 (109-for-509) with 14 HR (4 by Ohlman, 3 by Olt, 2 by Tavarez, and 1 each from Miller, Flores, Tavarez, Travis and Devers). Up and Down vs. Scranton/WB - Pawtucket had a 5-game winning streak vs. the RailRiders in May (with victories…5-4 on May 4 in Moosic, PA; 2-0 on both May 5 & 6 at McCoy; and 5-4 & 7-6 at McCoy on May 21 & 22) until suffering four straight defeats on May 23 & 24 at McCoy (7-1 & 3-1) and then June 29 & 30 at Scranton/WB (7-4 & 7-6 in 10-innings). The PawSox did snap that 4-game skid vs. the RailRiders with a 2-0 victory on July 1, but have dropped 7 of their last 10 vs. Scranton/WB. House of Horrors - PNC Field has been more like PAIN Field for the PawSox in recent times as the Sox have lost 16 of their last 20 games in Moosic. The Sox went 3-4 this year at PNC (splitting a 2-game set from May 5-6, dropping 2 of 3 from June 29 – July 1, and splitting another 2-game series on August 31 & September 1). Pawtucket went 1-10 last year at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre – their only win at PNC in 2017 coming June 24, 8-0 – and dropped their final two games at PNC in August of 2016 so it adds up to 3-15 in their last 18 in Moosic. Overall last season the Sox went 5-13 vs. the RailRiders (1-10 in Pennsylvania but 4-3 in Pawtucket). The Real Evil Empire – Pawtucket has lost the season-series with the RailRiders four years in a row. The PawSox went 5-13 last year, 7-9 vs. Scranton/WB in 2016, 6-13 in 2015, and 5-11 in 2014. The PawSox won the 2013 season-series over Scranton/WB, 11-5. Those 11 victories vs. the RailRiders in 2013 represented Pawtucket’s most in a single-season vs. the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre franchise since they became a Yankee affiliate in 2007. The PawSox won the season-series over the RailRiders in each of the 2011, 2012, and 2013 seasons after four straight non-winning years vs. Scranton/WB from 2007-2010 (one tie and three losers). The Sox finished 2-14 vs. the Yanks in 2007, 8-8 in 2008 (and then 1-3 in the 2008 playoffs), 4-12 in 2009, and 7-9 in 2010. Since then the Sox have gone 10-6 vs. Scranton/WB in 2011, 9-7 in 2012 (3-1 in the playoffs en route to winning the Governors’ Cup), 11-5 in 2013, but 5-11 in 2014, 6-13 in 2015, 7-9 in 2016, and 5-13 in 2017. Bring Back the Red Barons - The PawSox had dominated the former Scranton/WB Red Barons over parts of three years (2004-2006) before SWB became a Yankee affiliate going 23-4 in their last 27 meetings while SWB was a Phillies' affiliate. Low Point – The PawSox (now at 66-71) were a season-low 10-games below .500 on July 31 and August 2 (49-59) for the first time in almost three years since they ended the 2015 season with a 59-85 record. Sad Endings - The PawSox lost a game in the opponent’s final at-bat 10 times between July 17 – August 8. Pawtucket had suffered just 5 losses in the final at-bat of a game previously during their first 92 games of the season. During that span the Sox lost games in the bottom of the 11th-inning, bottom of the 9th, bottom of the 8th, bottom of the 9th, bottom of the 10th, top of the 10th, bottom of the 13th, bottom of the 12th, top of the 9th, and bottom of the 8th. Overall this season, the Sox have lost 17 games during the opposition’s last AB while winning 11 times during their own last AB (6 walk-offs). Left at the Altar – The PawSox lead the league with 994 runners left on base this season for an average of 7.3 LOB per game. The club-record is 1121 LOB in 2005 in 144 games (or an average of 7.8 per game). Series Business – The PawSox are 16-21-7 in their 44 series this season (16 wins, 21 losses, and 7 splits). They have posted four 3-game sweeps along with a 2-game sweep and a 1-game sweep (in Rochester on July 4). The PawSox have been swept in a series four times this season (suffering three 3-game sweeps and a 2-game sweep).

North Face – Pawtucket is 40-47 vs. their IL North rivals. They finished 13-11 vs. the IL West and 13-13 vs. the IL South. Bye to July - The PawSox concluded July with a 10-16 record in which they battled in a wave of close games. Pawtucket finished the month 2-9 in one-run games, 1-4 in extra innings, and lost 7 games in the opponents’ final at-bat in July. It marked their third consecutive losing month...they went 11-10 in April, but then 13-17 in May, 14-15 in June, and 10-16 in July. The Sox batted .251 in July with 15 HR in 26 games while posting a 3.54 ERA. Last Tune in June – The PawSox – due to a 5-game losing skid to end the month of June – finished with a losing record in June at 14-15. They hit .258 with 27 HR in 29 games during the month along with a 3.41 ERA. A Hectic May - The PawSox finished an extremely busy May with a 13-17 record for the month. The topsy-turvy travel month included four different homestands and four different roadtrips. Pitchers posted a 3.60 ERA in May while batters hit .227 with 22 HR and 97 runs in 30 May games (for an average of 3.2 runs per game). The Sox played 30 games in 31 days in May with just one scheduled off-day (May 17) during the entire month. April Comes up a Winner – The PawSox posted a winning April for the 6th time in the last 8 years as they finished the month with an 11-10 record and in 2nd-place in the IL North (-2 GB of front-running Syracuse at the time). Pawtucket has had just one losing month of April since 2010 and that came last year (10-12). The Sox hit .233 in April with 16 HR in 21 games while pitchers were 11-10 with a 3.51 ERA along with a league-leading 230 strikeouts in 190 innings. Throwing Strikes – Pawtucket pitchers are 2nd in the International League with their new club-record of 1202 strikeouts. Durham leads with 1257 SO. Sox hurlers have posted strikeout games of 20 (April 9), 18 (April 20 & July 8), 15 (three times), 14 (three times), 13 (seven times), 12 (eight times), 11 (six times), and 10 (16 times) this season. Defensive – Last year the PawSox led the International League with a .987 fielding pct. while making a league-low 64 errors on the season (both new franchise-records). This season the Sox are 13th in the league with a .978 fielding pct. (107 errors in 4804 total chances). Blanketed – The PawSox have been shutout 13 times this season (9-13)…Rochester (11-14) has been blanked the most in the league. Pawtucket was blanked 9 times total in 2017. They went 18-9 in shuout games last year. A Look Back Before We Go Forth – Pawtucket finished 67-75 last year and in 4th-place in the IL North for the second straight season. They dropped to a season-low 9-games under .500 on August 26 at 62-71. On July 18, 2017 the PawSox were a season-best 6-games over .500 at 50-44. Pawtucket finished 34-36 in games played at McCoy Stadium last season. Thus they finished with just their second losing season at McCoy in the last 8 years. The Sox went 33-39 on the road.

UPCOMING PROMOTIONS & SPECIAL EVENTS AT McCOY STADIUM MONDAY LAST GAME CELEBRATION 1:35 pm vs. Scranton/WB Fans will be in for a special treat tomorrow on Labor Day Monday when the PawSox play their final home game of the season at 1:35 pm vs. the Yankees of Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

In addition, the PawSox have added some unique surprises to this exciting day that fans won’t want to miss. PAWSOX PLAYER MOVES – None today! The PawSox have been involved in 74 player moves since July 22. The Sox are (somehow!) at the roster limit with 25 active players. Rehabbing 3B Rafael Devers does not count against the active roster. Pawtucket has used 58 different players this season (29 position players & 29 pitchers) – three more than the amount they employed last year (28 pitchers & 27 position players). Lefty reliever Josh Taylor is the only newcomer on the current roster and he would be #59 when he appears in a game. The club-record is 70 players used in both 1995 and 2006. Infielder Tzu-Wei Lin became the first player promoted from Pawtucket to Boston this season (not including rehabbing players) on April 10 before rejoining Pawtucket on May 8, returning to Boston on June 23, back with Pawtucket (July 2), again in Boston (July 12), back with the PawSox (July 25), to Boston again on July 29, back with Pawtucket on August 1, and recalled to Boston on September 1. Marcus Walden was #2 following his quick recall on April 12 and then another recall on May 2 (he came off the PawSox DL on July 25). Bobby Poyner became the third call-up on May 4 – he later returned to Pawtucket, went back to Boston (May 15), back again with the PawSox, to Boston (June 2), returned to Pawtucket (June 7), to Boston (July 14), back to the PawSox (July 22), and recalled to Boston on September 1. 1B/OF Sam Travis became the fourth call-up on June 2, returned to the the PawSox on June 12, back to Boston on July 13 with Pawtucket on July 16, and recalled to Boston on September 1.

LHP Jalen Beeks followed on June 6 (returned to Pawtucket on June 8, recalled to Boston on July 10, back with the PawSox on July 11, and traded to Tampa Bay on July 25). RHP Justin Haley was the next call-up to Boston on June 8, was optioned on June 19, recalled to Boston again on June 26, and optioned back to Pawtucket on July 2.

On August 4 INF Tony Renda became the 12th different player promoted from Pawtucket to Boston (and the next night he scored the winning run in the bottom of the 10th-inning as a pinch runner to cap the Red Sox 4-game sweep of the Yankees at Fenway). Renda returned to Pawtucket on August 9. The PawSox have employed 11 different Red Sox players on a rehab assignment already this season…LHP Drew Pomeranz (twice but now back with Boston), RHP Steven Wright (three times but back with Boston), LHP Bobby Poyner (optioned to Pawtucket, recalled again to Boston, back with the PawSox, and now to Boston), INF Xander Bogaerts (returned to Boston), RHP Tyler Thornburg (three times but now in Boston), INF/OF Brock Holt (back with Boston), 2B Dustin Pedroia (back on the Red Sox DL), RHP Austin Maddox (twice but remains on Red Sox DL), RHP Hector Velazquez (returned to Boston), catcher Christian Vazquez (returned to Boston) and currently 3B Rafael Devers. It was another busy player movement year in 2017. The PawSox were involved in 221 player transactions during the 2017 season. Pawtucket employed 55 different players last season (28 pitchers & 27 position players). They had 18 different players promoted to Boston during the 2017 season (not including rehabbing players).
