Recap


            The B-Mets outplayed the host Portland Sea Dogs in nearly every facet of the game Tuesday night, which led to an easy 6-1 win in the series opener. Binghamton starter Gabriel Ynoa had his start bumped up a day after the promotion of Rainy Lara, and he settled in nicely after a bumpy start. Binghamton kept on attacking Tuesday night, but they were also aided by 4 Portland errors, which they took full advantage of (see full scoring highlights below). The Mets bullpen took over in the 8th and worked two scoreless innings, allowing only a walk, with Julian Hilario looking good as he closed things out.
            After the Mets had handed him a 1-0 lead in the 1st, Ynoa allowed a homerun to the first Portland batter he’d face. The B-Mets jumped back out to a 2-1 lead in the 2nd, but then Portland came out and started the bottom of the 2nd with two straight singles. It looked like it might be a long night for Ynoa, but he’d snag a line drive comebacker from the next batter to start a double play, which started a streak of 15-straight batters retired from Ynoa. He wasn’t missing many bats (only 4 swinging strikes per gameday), but he wasn’t allowing hard contact either, and he continued to show better control than earlier in the season (1.1% BB-rate over his last 4 starts, 6.5% overall).
            The series continues Wednesday night at 7:00 PM, with Luis Cessa scheduled to pitch for Binghamton.


Scoring Highlights


            Gavin Cecchini led off the game with a double into the LF corner, and then scored on a double from Brock Peterson into the RF corner.



            The B-Mets scored a run in the 2nd without the assistance of a hit, as the first two batters reached on errors (E4, E6), and then Carrillo came around to score on a groundout.


            L.J. Mazzilli led off the 3rd with a single, and then scored when Michael Conforto’s single into right-center field was bobbled by Portland center fielder Dave Sappelt. Conforto would advance to 2B on the play, but was caught between 2B and 3B on a groundout to 3B one batter later. Josh Rodriguez followed with a double that advanced Brock to 3B, and then another E6 allowed Peterson to score.





            Eudy Pina began the 4th with a single, went to 3B on Mazzili’s second hit of the game, and then scored on Peterson’s second RBI hit of the game – L.J. would be thrown out trying to advance to 3B on the play.




            In the 6th, Eudy Pina hit this solo blast to LF for his second homerun of the season.



            Mazzilli made it a 3-hit night with a single in the 9th.



Bonus

Gavin Cecchini made clean throws all night, here are a couple of examples.



Gabriel Ynoa turned his start around after this play.
