Portland, Maine - Portland Sea Dogs left-hander Daniel McGrath has been named the Eastern League Pitcher of the Week (week of July 22-28), announced by the league office earlier today. McGrath is Portland's first pitcher of the week winner since Kyle Hart in 2018.
McGrath received the award for his start on July 25 against the Harrisburg Senators at Hadlock Field. The lefty fired eight scoreless frames on two hits, one walk, and six strikeouts. McGrath has not allowed an earned run in his last 46.0 innings pitched with the Sea Dogs.
In 21 games (nine starts) this season, McGrath is 2-0, 1.46 ERA (12 ER/74.0 IP) with 71 strikeouts and just 14 runs allowed.
McGrath is pitching with Portland for the second straight season and is 2-0, 0.55 ERA (3 ER/48.2 IP) as a starter. The Boston Red Sox signed McGrath as an international free agent on February 7, 2012.
The Sea Dogs are off on Monday and begin a six-game trip on Tuesday night against the Richmond Flying Squirrels (Giants affiliate) at the Diamond. Tickets for the next homestand are available at 207-874-9300 or seadogs.com
