Recapish

            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies made it three straight over New Hampshire Saturday night with a 7-2 win over the Fisher Cats. Making just his third start of the season, Binghamton righty Scarlyn Reyes went a season high six innings for his second win of the year. David Thompson led the way offensive for the Ponies, connecting on his ninth homer and 23^rd double of the season – both team highs – and he became the first Binghamton player of the season to reach 50 RBI’s.

Recapish

            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies did something Thursday night that hasn’t happened too often in 2017: they dropped the rubber match of a series. The Ponies are nine games above .500, which is good for the third best record in the Eastern League (unfortunately for Binghamton’s playoff hopes, the top-two teams are both within the division), but inconsistent starting pitching hurt them in this series. Mickey Jannis took the hill for Binghamton in the finale and Altoona put up a pair of crooked numbers against him early, which ultimately led to an early exit for the knuckleballer. The Ponies pulled within one run three times, but the Curve answered right back with runs the first time, and Binghamton ran out of outs after the third time.

Recapish

            The Binghamton Rumble Ponies arrived in Altoona riding high on a three-game winning streak, but Altoona’s Tanner Anderson put an end to that with eight shutout innings, and the Curve took the series opener 6-0. Binghamton starter Marcos Molina was making just his fourth start in Double-A, but this was his least effective start to date. He failed to finish six innings for the first time, and managed just one strikeout and four swinging strikes all night. Ben Griset and Scarln Reyes combined on two-plus innings of relief for the Ponies, but the Bingo bats never got any sort of comeback rally going.
