Holding pattern in Portland
By Dan Hickling, Globe Correspondent
PORTLAND, Maine -- Still in a holding pattern in rainy Portland. Field covered in gray tarp, weather radar map covered in every other color.
To most of those who are braving the elements (and the stands are surprisingly full), the chief concern is getting to see Ortiz.
And that’s an iffy proposition, at this point.
But there are Eastern League concerns, too. This is the last trip to Portland for the Connecticut Defenders, and with both teams fighting for the same Northern Division playoff spot, all parties would like to get this one in.
More to come.
