Marcelo Mayer had three hits with three RBI, and the Portland Sea Dogs rallied for 11 runs over the sixth, seventh and eighth innings in a 12-5 win over the New Hampshire Fisher Cats Sunday at Delta Dental Stadium in Manchester, New Hampshire.

The Sea Dogs broke a 5-5 tie with a seven-run eighth inning. Alex Binelas hit a two-run homer, Mayer singled home another run and scored on a wild pitch, and Niko Kavadas followed with a three-run homer.

Mayer started the rally with a solo homer in the sixth to give Portland a 2-1 lead. After the Fisher Cats pulled ahead 5-2 with a four-run sixth, Philip Sikes scored a run on a sacrifice fly, Nick Yorke hit an RBI triple and Mayer added an RBI single in the seventh to tie it at 5.

The late collapse by the Fisher Cats overshadowed an impressive start by Alek Manoah, who pitched five strong innings as part of a rehab assignment from the Toronto Blue Jays. Manoah struck out 10, walked three and allowed three hits and a run — an RBI single by Binelas.

Reliever Brendan Cellucci (1-1) scattered two hits and struck out seven over the final three innings for the win.

Bridges missed all of last season after he was charged with domestic violence in July 2022. He pleaded no contest last November and is serving three years of probation.

He will miss the first 10 games of this season.
