New Hampshire scored once in the fourth on back-to-back doubles by Curtis Thigpen and Brad Hassey, but the Sea Dogs took the lead for good when Concepcion homered with a man aboard in the bottom of the inning.
Portland scored three runs in the fifth on two singles, two walks, an error, a fielding miscue and a sacrifice fly.
Both teams scored once in the sixth and Portland added a run in the eighth.
