PORTLAND

After totaling six runs in their past five games, the Portland Sea Dogs broke out Thursday night with a 10-0 win over the Hartford Yard Goats in Eastern League action before 5,778 at Hadlock Field.

Josh Ockimey came a triple short of the cycle. Danny Mars also homered and Jhon Nunez went 3-for- 4.

Portland didn’t really need so much offense because Teddy Stankiewicz had things under control — literally. Stankiewicz (6-8) threw 100 pitches (69 strikes) to complete eight shutout innings, allowing three hits and no walks (one hit batter) while striking out five. He faced 27 batters, went to a three-ball count twice and threw 19 first-pitch strikes.

“Felt really good,” Stankiewicz said. “I was aggressive inside early and that opened up the outer half of the plate.”

It was easily his best performance of the year. He mixed pitches, countering a fastball with a splitter — that he added this year — and slider.

In the fourth inning, Dom Nunez of Hartford crushed Stankiewicz’s first-pitch fastball foul down the rightfield line. Stankiewicz later set him down swinging at a splitter.

Stankiewicz ended the inning by striking out Sam Hilliard with an elevated 94 mph fastball. He retired 14 of the last 16 batters he faced.

Ockimey started the Sea Dogs offense with his 13th home run leading off the second. Ockimey swatted a 91 mph inside fastball from Ryan Castellani (5-6), launching it to right- center — an estimated 392 feet.

Ockimey had been scuffling (2-for-23 since the Eastern League All-Star game), but went 3-for-3, including a walk and sacrifice fly, with three RBIs. He doubled in a run in the third inning for a 2-0 lead.

“Every single at-bat he had was productive,” Sea Dogs manager Darren Fenster said. “He managed the zone really well. He was one highlight in a game full of highlights for us.”

Ockimey is batting .260 and leads the team with an .865 OPS.

Jordan Weems came on to pitch the ninth, allowing one hit and recording his 31st strikeout in 28 innings overall.
