Recapish
The
Binghamton Rumble Ponies and New Hampshire Fisher Cats combined for 18 hits
over the first nine innings of game one Wednesday night, yet the two teams
still went into official extra innings in a 1-1 tie (since this game was part
of a double-header, technically extra innings started in the 8th).
The teams combined to go 3-18 with runners in scoring position and left a
combined 21 runners on base, but perhaps the biggest reason the score stayed so
low is because 20 of the 22 combined hits went for singles. Kevin Kaczmarski
played the role of walkoff hero again for the Ponies, something he seems to be
excelling at this year.
The
Ponies first hit was a 1st inning single from Luis Guillorme.
Binghamton jumped ahead 1-0 in the 2nd when David Thompson went deep
for the 15th time this season.

Ricky
Knapp allowed twelve base runners over his eight innings of work, so it’s not
surprising he only had one perfect inning (the 7th). He allowed two
base runners in the 5th, 6th, and 8th innings,
but he got the big out as needed in those three frames – the Ponies turned a
huge double play behind him in the 5th to help him through a
scoreless frame. The only run New Hampshire scored against Knapp came in the 4th,
when they strung together three straight singles with two outs, one of which
was an infield hit.

After
the 2nd, the Binghamton offense scattered a few singles over the
next six frames: Gustavo Nunez in the 3rd and 5th, Kevin
Kaczmarski in the 4th, and Thompson in the 6th. Kevin
Taylor started the Ponies 9th with a double, but was quickly erased
from the bases on a double play.

Knapp
kept Binghamton in the game through the first 8 innings, but he finally passed
100 pitches and had to come out. Cory Burns took over in the 9th and
gave Binghamton two scoreless frames, which kept this game going long enough
for the Ponies to walkoff.
Guillorme
sparked the 10th inning rally with a leadoff single through the left
side. Matt Oberste followed with a single, which put Guillorme in scoring
position with nobody out. The scoring threat was threatened when Tomas Nido
followed with a double play grounder, which is a problem that’s plagued him
this year. Fortunately, the inning wasn’t over, and Luis Guillorme was just 90
feet away from home. The Cats decided they didn’t want to face David Thompson
with the game on the line, so they intentionally walked Thompson and Kevin
Kaczmarski made them pay for it. Kacz came through with the walkoff single to
make the Ponies 2-1 winners.
