On Baseball: Sea Dogs manager itching to get back to Portland

Like the rest of us, Joe Oliver is stuck at home, wondering when baseball will resume.

A shortened schedule would be a certainty, perhaps with more doubleheaders and games played deep into the fall.

After an extensive vetting process, Emma Tiedemann brings her talent and experience to the Hadlock Field radio booth.

The G League (Red Claws) and ECHL (Mariners) have suspended their seasons, while the start of the Sea Dogs’ baseball season will be delayed.

Lance Carter, a former All-Star with Tampa Bay, will be Portland’s new pitching coach.

Michael Chavis and Joe Oliver are among those who weigh in on the dismissal of Red Sox manager Alex Cora.

Next season’s schedule features just seven home games in April, the fewest since the Sea Dogs’ inaugural season in 1994.

There were highlights – a no-hitter, a three-homer game, players called up – but Portland finished with the third-worst record in the Eastern League.

Daniel McGrath is promoted, so instead of a pitching duel, New Hampshire dominates with Yennsy Diaz’s near no-hitter.

Denyi Reyes, who is on Boston’s 40-man roster, allows three hits as the Sea Dogs defeat New Hampshire, 5-4.
