The Sea Dogs walked and walked and walked.
Portland batters drew eight walks from two wild New Hampshire relievers in the eighth inning. That, and a Jack Lopez two-run double, brought home six runs, giving the Sea Dogs a 12-6 win before a capacity crowd of 1,835.
New Hampshire won the first contest of this season-opening six-game series on Tuesday, but the Sea Dogs have been streaking since with five straight wins.
“A lot of things are going well,” Portland Manager Corey Wimberly said.
Johan Mieses was going well Sunday, hitting two home runs. Joey Meneses added one.
But walks made the difference.
