Tazawa, 22, the new Boston Red Sox pitching prospect from Japan, took the loss Thursday night in the Connecticut Defenders' 3-0 victory over Portland in the opener at Hadlock Field.

Tazawa put in an impressive five innings, allowing four hits, one walk and one run, striking out seven.

He showed off his publicized control with 44 strikes among his 66 pitches.

"He didn't give in. He wasn't afraid to go right at them," Sea Dogs pitching coach Mike Cather said. "It's been consistent with what we've seen in spring training. He attacked with his fastball and established his curveball as his out pitch."
