Recap


            Although it won’t be their final game in 2015, the Binghamton Mets and Altoona Curve played the final game of the regular season Monday afternoon, and it lasted much longer than either team would’ve liked. The Curve jumped out to a big 5-0 lead early against Mickey Jannis and Kevin McGowan, but then the B-Mets bullpen took control and held them to just 1 run over the final 10 innings. Meanwhile, the Curve bullpen took over and walked the B-Mets right back into this game, issuing 7 walks between the 3rd and 5th innings as the B-Mets scored their first 6 runs. The B-Mets were outhit badly throughout the game, with more runs than hits from when they tied the game until the 11th inning. The Curve batters were swinging for the fences nearly every time up after they took their early lead, which is probably why Brock Peterson was able to keep them in check for 3 innings late in the game. Peterson became the first B-Mets position player in franchise history to earn a win when Vince Belnome hit his two run bomb in the bottom of the 12th.
            With the regular season over, the Pedro Lopez and the B-Mets turn their eyes towards a repeat. Tyler Pill takes the hill in game one on Wednesday night, marking the third straight playoff series he’ll start in game one for the B-Mets, and they won the first two.


Scoring Highlights


            After retiring the first two batters of the game, Mickey Jannis really struggled to find the strike zone, which led to four walks around two singles and a pitching change. Eric Wood and Andy Vasquez had the RBI singles for Altoona.

            Austin Meadows doubled home Adam Frazier in the 2nd inning after a leadoff walk, and then Sebastian Valle and Erich Weiss followed with singles to get Meadows home for a 5-0 lead.

            After striking out the first two B-Mets batters in the 3rd inning, Robert Stock would walk the bases loaded for Victor Cruzado. Cruzado came through with a two run double to RF, which made this a 5-2 game.


            Wood led off the 5th with a single to LF, and Frazier would drive him in four batters later – his hit also knocked McGowan out of the game.

            L.J. Mazzilli led off the 5th inning with a single to CF, and then the next two B-Mets batter drew walks to load the bases. The B-Mets would score their next three runs on an E5, an RBI force out, and a wild pitch, and then Albert Cordero singled home the game tying run with two outs.



            After dragging on far too long for the members of the press box, Vince Belnome launched a two run homerun to RF with two outs in the 12th to give the B-Mets a walkoff victory.
