Making an MLB rehab appearance for Portland, Rodriguez allowed just three baserunners - a double to Jon Berti on a 3-0 pitch and a pair of walks to go along with his eight strikeouts. The lefty threw 63 pitches (39 strikes).
Aaron Sanchez was also making an MLB rehab appearance and started the game for New Hampshire. Sanchez allowed four runs (three earned) on six hits in 4.1 innings. He walked four and struck out four.
Portland plated the game's first run in the second inning when Jhon Nunez scored on a passed ball by catcher Patrick Cantwell.
The Sea Dogs added three more runs in the fourth off Sanchez on a pair of walks, a two-run double by Jeremy Rivera and an RBI single by Chad De La Guerra.
Rivera reached base four times with a single, double, and two walks.
New Hampshire began chipping away at the Sea Dogs' leadoff of Dedgar Jimenez, scoring a run in the fifth and sixth on RBI base hits from Bo Bichette and Santiago Espinal.
Bichette picked up his third hit and second RBI with a two-out single in the ninth to score Juan Kelly and make it 4-3 Portland.
Jimenez (8-7) earned the victory by pitching the final five innings in a piggyback start. Jimenez allowed two runs on five hits while walking one and striking out four. Jimenez struck out Forrest Wall with the tying run on first to end the ballgame.
