Recapish


            Rain has been a constant for the Rumble Ponies this season, and it butted its wet head again Saturday evening in Binghamton. The Ponies and Sea Dogs were scheduled to make up a game that was rained out earlier in the season as part of a double-header Saturday, but the rains came before the two teams could even finish game one. The game would be suspended Saturday and finished before Sunday’s regularly scheduled game. The delay came at a perfect time for Binghamton, as Ponies start Mickey Jannis had been on the ropes early Saturday, but his replacement Drew Smith was nearly perfect in relief Sunday, which allowed for an eventual walkoff win.
            Mickey Jannis worked a perfect 3rd inning, but he allowed seven base runners across the other three frames he worked. He got out of a bases loaded jam in the 1st when the Ponies turned a 5-4-3 double play behind him. Tomas Nido helped him through the second with a caught stealing, which erased the first of two straight to reach in the 2nd. Finally, there were two on with just one out in the 4th when the game was suspended.

CS for Nido

            While the day change made a difference for the Ponies on the mound, it made little difference at the plate. Binghamton managed just two hits on Saturday: Kevin Taylor led off the 2nd with a single and Kevin Kaczmarski doubled with two outs in the 3rd.

            When the game resumed Sunday, Drew Smith found himself taking over a tough spot out of the pen: two on and just one out. He got Mike Olt to pop out for the second out of the frame and then struck out the next seven batters. He’s consistent mid-90’s heat with a nice curve, so he’s been a nice little addition to the Mets system.


            While Smith was taking over the show with his performance from the mound, Portland’s reliever Taylor Grover was matching him zero-for-zero. Grover allowed just two hits over four innings of relief for the Sea Dogs: Champ Stuart singled in the 5th and Tomas Nido singled in the 7th.

            Tim Peterson took over for Smith in the 7th and worked two scoreless frames to keep the Bingo shutout alive. The Ponies made him a winner when they walked off in the bottom of the 8th. Luis Guillorme coaxed a one out walk against new reliever Ty Buttrey and then Kevin Kaczmarski played the role of hero. Kacz connected on his second double of the game to bring Guillorme home from first and give the Ponies a 1-0 win.

            Looking ahead, the Ponies turn to Corey Oswalt as they wrap up this series with Portland Sunday afternoon (about thirty minutes after this game ended).
