Cup of Coffee: Dalbec and Tubbs lead the charge for Drive


4/10 Cup of Coffee: The lineups broke out for the Sea Dogs and Drive on Sunday, with both teams taking wins in high-scoring games.

Danny Mars led the Sea Dogs in a one-run victory with a 3-for-4 game and a two-run homer. The PawSox bats were unable to show up in each game of their doubleheader, dropping both.
