Portland puts pitching and hitting together to beat Reading and end a seven-game slide.
Portland Sea Dogs
Going, going, officially gone
Any hopes of a postseason – if there had been any – are extinguished with a seventh straight loss to end an ugly 0-6 homestand.
Steve Solloway: Growing up while going up
In a pre-ESPN, pre-Internet world, Bryce Harper might have been allowed to grow up and pay his dues with none of us keeping tabs. Today there are no secrets and no patience.

Something missing from Dogs’ lineup
