It's amazing to me that Dan Otero's ERA....

remains at zero, he has 11 saves and teams are batting over .300 against him. Save number 11 came today in Portland as CT rallied twice won 9-8. Defs take three games out of four from the SeaDogs this holiday weekend.
Big hits in the game came off the bats of Sharlon Schoop and Brett Pill. Schoop hit a three run double in the fourth to tie the game at 4-4. In the fifth, Pill's second homer of the season, a three run job, put CT in front for good 7-6 after Portland had rallied to regain the lead in the bottom of the fourth. CT added two big runs in the 7th on Pills's sac fly and Bobby Felmy's RBI single. Joe Paterson shut the door on the SeaDogs in the bottom half of the seventh as Portland scored twice off fellow relievers Ben Sndyer and Geivy Garcia.
Otero came on in the ninth and gave up a pair of singles and with runners on the corners and one out, CT center fielder Mike McBryde threw out the runner from third trying to score on a sac fly to end the game. It's the second time this season the Defs won a game in that manner.
Dan Griffin (2-3) gets the win today. Daryl Maday had his worst outing of the season going 4IP giving up 6 runs and 9 hits.
Brandon Crawford (BA. now .333) and Jackson Williams (his first multi-hit game in a while) both had three hits for CT. CT had 13 hits on the day, five of them doubles.
FisherCats lose, so CT is back up 2.5 games over NH.
