Recapish


            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies kept the good feels rolling with a sixth straight win to start the home stand. Casey Delgado struggled with command early in this start, but he limited the damage enough in each of the first three innings, and his teammates picked him up at the plate. After the Yard Goats tied the game in the top half of the 3rd, Kevin Kaczmarski went out and hit a homer to get the lead back in the bottom half, and the Rumble Ponies pitching did the rest. With all the minors games going at the same time as the Mets game, I miss things some times, but this strikeout from Cory Burns was so weird that it made it to deadspin.
            Delgado came out of the gates a little wild, allowing a pair of doubles that sandwiched a walk for two Hartford runs. He’s done this before only to settle down and improve as the game went on, which was the case in this outing. He ended the frame with a strikeout of Josh Fuentes to strand a runner at third.
            The Rumble Ponies then got those two runs back and two more in their half of the 1st, although most didn’t do much more than stand at the plate with their bats on their shoulders. Only Luis Guillorme and Kevin Kaczmraski singled in the frame, but there were five walks, all from Hartford starter Luis Nieblas before he exited. He threw 41 pitches in this game, and just 17 went for strikes.



            Omar Carrizales made it a 4-3 game when he connected for a two out single in the 2nd, but he was then picked off of first base to end the frame.
            The Yard Goats got another two out RBI hit against Delgado in the 3rd, with Fuentes coming through this time, getting a little revenge against Delgado and tying the game.
            As mentioned, that tie did not last long, because Kaczmraski went deep in the Bingo half of the 3rd.



            After all that early offense, neither side would get another runner into scoring position until the bottom of the 8th. Kaczmarski connected for his third hit of the game with one out in the frame, went to second on a hit by pitch, and to third on a fly out, but the Rumble Ponies left the bases loaded.


            That missed opportunity nearly proved huge in the 9th, as Correlle Prime reached on a one out triple, putting the tying run just 90 feet away. Of course, Bingo closer Tim Peterson had allowed more than one hit just once this year, and Hartford was unable to make it twice.
            Despite the long winning streak, Binghamton is still one game behind the Trenton Thunder for the best record in the EL, as Trenton keeps winning as well. The Rumble Ponies turn to Blake Beavan (0-0, 6.00 ERA) to push the streak to seven games Saturday night, with game time scheduled for 7:05 PM.
