Recapish


            The Rumble Ponies overcame an early deficit to beat the Erie Sea Wolves for a second straight night Saturday in Binghamton. After starting the season with Las Vegas, Mickey Jannis made his first Double-A start of the year and was effective enough over his 5+ innings of work to earn the win. He allowed two runs in the 2nd as the Ponies fell behind early, but then Binghamton scored four unanswered runs to take control of this game, and they went on to win 4-2.
            Jannis started his outing with a perfect 1st, striking out Kenny Wilson along the way. He then allowed a hit to each of the first three Erie batters in the 2nd as they jumped ahead 2-0. Herlis Rodriguez had the big hit for Erie in the frame, connecting on an RBI double for the games first run. Jannis then induced three straight groundouts to end the frame, but a second run came home on one of them.


K #1

            Jhoan Urena had the Ponies first hit when he singled with two outs in the 2nd.


            Jannis issued a leadoff walk in the 3rd, but then struck out Sergio Alcantara and induced a double play grounder to escape the frame.

K #2

            The Ponies got on the board in the bottom of the 3rd when Levi Michael launched a solo blast, his first homer of the year. John Mora singled later in the frame and the Binghamton evened the score on a double play grounder.

            Jeff McNeil tripled and scored on a wild pitch in the 4th, which gave Binghamton a 3-2 lead. Urena singled again later in the frame.

            Jannis’ final outs of the night came during a scoreless 5th. He struck out one in the frame and worked around a walk, an error, and a passed ball to strand the tying run at third.

K #3

            Austin McGeorge took over for Jannis with a runner on an nobody out in the 6th and quickly escaped the jam. A caught stealing for Patrick Mazeika eliminated the base runner, and then McGeorge struck out Jake Rogers to end the frame.

McGeorge's K

            Mazeika led off the Ponies 6th with a surprise bunt single, but Binghamton couldn’t add any insurance runs in the frame.


            McGeorge started the 7th but was replaced by David Roseboom with one out and a runner on second base. The BOOM stranded that baserunner and finished the frame with Binghamton still up 3-2.

            The Ponies finally added some insurance in the bottom of the 7th after an E4 from Erie. Levi Michael reached on the error, went to second on a Kevin Taylor single, and then scored on another single from Mora.

            Eric Hanhold took over on the mound for Binghamton in the 8th and wrapped up the 4-2 win. Hanhold struck out a pair over two scoreless frames to earn his first save of the year.

K #1

K #2

            It didn’t lead to any runs, but Matt Oberste started the Ponies 8th with a double, his first of the season.


            Looking ahead, the Ponies have a chance to sweep Erie Sunday. Michael Gibbons will get called up to make the start in place of Marcos Molina, who is headed to Las Vegas to make his Triple-A debut.
