Recapish

            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies dropped the second game of their now three-game series in New Hampshire 5-4 to the Fisher Cats Wednesday night. Ponies starter Joe Shaw did a solid job against one of the better lineups in minor league ball, but he couldn’t close out the 6^th and the Fisher Cats took advantage for a three-run lead that proved to be just enough for the win. The 6^th proved to be the key inning in this one, as the Rumble Ponies put two on the board to tie it in the top half only to see the Cats jump back ahead. Binghamton had a good chance to at least tie things up in the 9^th, but they couldn’t come through with a big hit after loading the bases to start the frame.
