Minor Lines 5/21: Password rakes as WooSox lose
Briefly

In a challenging game for the Red Sox, strikeouts proved detrimental as they missed a chance for a sweep. While some players performed well, such as Password, who recorded his second consecutive two-hit game, overall performance was underwhelming across the affiliates. Worcester faced pitching struggles late in their game, allowing a game-tying home run. Additionally, the Sea Dogs exhibited a positive with limited strikeouts but struggled to reach base. With key players underperforming, lineup adjustments may be necessary to increase overall effectiveness, especially with high strikeout rates becoming a concern for some players, including Nazzan Zanetello.
Strikeouts became Boston's kryptonite in a game that presented the Red Sox with an opportunity for a sweep.
Good news: The Sea Dogs struck out just twice in this abbreviated contest. Bad news: they also had just three base runners.
When the only RBI of the game comes from the only extra base hit, you're probably not going to come out on the winning side of any game.
Just a short gripe: Nazzan Zanetello again struck out four times, and it's time someone steps in and really reconstructs that swing with him.
