OT: Gabbard Remains Out of Control ; Kason Gabbard Walks Four, Hits Two and Gives Up Seven Runs in the First Inning, and the Sea Dogs Never Recover.

When Kason Gabbard rejoined the Portland Sea Dogs, the plan seemed for him to make a few starts, then move on to Pawtucket, then maybe back to the big leagues.

Not so fast.

Gabbard's command has been an issue since he's arrived. It hit a low point Tuesday night.

Gabbard failed to make it out of the first inning, allowing seven runs in a 9-5 loss to the New Britain Rock Cats at Hadlock Field.
