News from the injury front is not good for the Sea Dogs.

Shortstop Nelson Castro will miss 8-10 weeks after a CAT scan revealed a broken hamate bone in his left wrist.

Castro, who hurt the wrist diving for a ball last weekend, was originally diagnosed with a sprain.

In addition, Loyd will miss at least another month after an MRI showed a ligament tear in his knee.

First baseman Dustin Brisson suffered a slight setback as he continues to recover from a high ankle sprain. He’ll be out at least another week.

Around the minor leagues

Former Red Sox prospect Seung Song tossed the first no-hitter in Harrisburg history as the Senators beat Erie 2-1 Monday night. But it didn’t come without controversy. Song, who was traded to Montreal as part of the Cliff Floyd deal last season, allowed an unearned run in the ninth inning after he was charged with an error on a bunt attempt by Erie’s Nook Logan that everyone in the ballpark except the official scorer thought was a base hit. Television replays clearly showed Logan was past the base when Song’s errant throw got past first baseman Glenn Davis. Logan was credited with a sacrifice on the play even though his team was down 2-0 with one out. Even Song disagreed with the ruling. “I think hit, but they put error (on the scoreboard),” he said.Jason Coulie hit a leadoff home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to lead Rancho Cucamonga to a 4-3 win over Lake Elsinore Tuesday in the Class-A California League. The Bates grad, a ninth round selection of the Anaheim Angels in the 2000 draft, had gone 118 at-bats without a home run.Former Sea Dog Jaime Jones has resurfaced in the California League. Jones, a first-round bust after he was chosen by the Florida Marlins with the sixth overall pick of the 1995 draft, had been out of the game since being released by the Marlins on June 1, 2001. He was signed by the Arizona Diamondbacks and was hitting .321 for the Lancaster Jethawks heading into the weekend.
