Recapish


            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies spent their Friday night playing catch-up after the New Hampshire Fisher Cats ripped three extra base hits for four runs off Casey Delgado in the 1st inning. Delgado settled down and gave Binghamton 5.2 strong innings of work after the 1st, but the early deficit proved too much for the Ponies offense to overcome.
            The heart of the Fisher Cats lineup got to Delgado in the 1st. Richard Urena sparked the rally with a well-struck double lined into LF, and then, after a walk, Ryan McBroom made it 2-0 with a well-struck double over Champ’s head in CF. Delgado nearly escaped the frame down just 2-0, but then Emilio Guerrero launched a two-run blast to left center field that made it 4-0.
            Thanks to Champ Stuart, the Rumble Ponies had opportunities to start chipping away at the score in the 1st and 3rd inning, but both times he was stranded in scoring position. They did start chipping away at the score in the 4th, but each of the first two times Binghamton scored, New Hampshire came right back and scored a run in the top half of the next inning.
             I break down Binghamton’s offense further below, and there are a few defensive highlights too. This series continues Saturday afternoon at 1:05 PM, with Mickey Jannis scheduled to start for the Ponies as they look to get back above .500.


MiLB.tv Scoring Highlights


            Champ Stuart started his big night with a single and stolen base in the 1st, but was stranded at 2B in the frame.



            Champ then doubled and stole third base in the 3rd, but he would again be stranded.



            Binghamton finally broke through in the 4th, which started with a Kevin Kaczmarski walk. Matt Oberste would single Kacz to 3B, and then Tomas Nido doubled them both in three batters later.



            Cody Decker launched a solo blast in the 6th inning. Kevin Taylor followed with a single but was erased on a double play.



            Luis Guillorme singled in his last AB of the night and then came around to score on Champ’s first homer of the season.




MiLB.tv Defensive Highlights


            Luis Guillorme makes fielding this in-between hop look way too easy.


            Casey Delgado picked off a runner at 1B.


            Binghamton turned a 6-4-3 double play behind Delgado in the 6th inning.


            David Thompson made a nice bare-handed play in the 7th.
