Recap


            Gabriel Ynoa turned in one of his best performances of the year, but the B-Mets bats could only make loud outs in Akron, and they ended up on the wrong end of an exciting pitcher’s duel. Ynoa was very sharp, showing that trademark control while recording 5 strikeouts for just the second time this season – the 9 swinging strikes are the second most he’s had in a start this year too. Brock Peterson had a nice night, and the B-Mets 2 threats came during the innings the Brock had a hit. In the 2nd, he led off with a single and would advance when Aderlin hit a single, but they would be stranded on base. In the 4th, he hit a one-out double into the left center field gap (see below), but would again be stranded at 2B.
            Ynoa might’ve held a shutout into extra innings with some good defense behind him, but Akron would score a run after a one-out triple in the 2nd, and then Eudy Pina gifted them an RBI ‘triple’ in the 7th. The triple was a hard grounder down the 3B line that Conforto appeared to have trouble collecting and getting in, so the speedy Ronny Rodriguez kept running until he was standing at 3B – he’d score on an RBI groundout. In the 7th, Lawley’s second error of the door opened up the door for some key insurance runs. Tony Wolters followed with a line drive to RF that Eudy Pina should’ve played on a hop, but instead he went for the highlight reel diving catch and came up empty, so the ball rolled until Brandon Nimmo collected it. He matched the swinging strikes total from his past two starts combined, but now has allowed just 4 ER over those 3 starts: 21.2 IP, 1.66 ERA, 16 H, 7 SO: 2 BB, HBP, 30 GO: 19 FO, 66% strikes, 6.2% swinging strike rate. Overall, positive steps forward from where he was earlier this season.
            This series continues Sunday at 2:05 PM, with Luis Cessa scheduled to pitch as Binghamton looks for a Cessa-tion of this 4-game losing streak.


Scoring Highlights


            Brock Peterson led off the 2nd with a single, and then went to 2B on a two out single from Aderlin Rodriguez, but the B-Mets couldn’t capitalize in the frame.



Brock added a one-out double in the 4th.





            Michael Conforto was held hitless, but he did fly out to the warning track twice – Eudy Pina did too, but I didn’t think as many people would want to see those fly outs (tweet at me if you do).





Bonus


Albert Cordero was quick to field this weak chopper, and then finished play nicely.
