Triple-A - Las Vegas 51s (66-53)_______________________________________

EL PASO 5, LAS VEGAS 4 (Box)

The 51s dropped a see-saw affair in frustrating walk-off fashion last night.  El Paso got up 2-0 and 3-1 in the early going as prospective big club spot starter Logan Verrett allowed eight baserunners in four innings—though he did strike out seven.  Vegas took a 4-3 lead in the fifth thanks in part to a Darrell Ceciliani homer, but also left the bases loaded that inning.  The lead held until the eighth when Zach Thornton walked home the tying run.  He also walked the leadoff batter in the ninth, who eventually scored the winning run on a liner that Matt Reynolds got a glove on but couldn't haul in.

  • 2B-3B Danny Muno: 1-4, R, K
  • CF Darrell Ceciliani: 4-5, R, 2B, HR (7), 3 RBI, K
  • SS Matt Reynolds: 2-5, R, K, SB (11)

  • C Kevin Plawecki: 1-4, 2 K
  • LF Travis Taijeron: 0-3, BB

    • Double-A - Binghamton Mets (64-52)_____________________________________

    BINGHAMTON 5  ALTOONA 4 (Box)

    The B-Mets were no-hit through five innings, but exploded for a four-run eighth to take a 5-2 lead.  Vince Belnome, Jonathan Galvez, and L.J. Mazzilli all got two-out RBIs to key the rally.  Altoona came back with a rally of their own in the bottom half, but Paul Sewald came on with the tying run on base and notched a strikeout to end the threat and then set down the Curve in order in the ninth.

    Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (59-56 /24-21)_____________________________________

    ST. LUCIE 1 JUPITER 1 (suspended—1st inning.  Scheduled to be resumed today) (Box)

    Low-A - Savannah Sand Gnats (67-48 / 28-17)__________________________________

    SAVANNAH 9, ROME 4 (Box)

    The Sand Gnats jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first, and starter Casey Delgado was strong through 5, having allowed only 2 hits and a walk to that point.  But Rome rallied to tie the game 4-4 in the seventh (with the tying hit coming off reliever Ben Griset) only to see the Gnats take off again for five runs in the next two innings to seal the game.

    SS-A - Brooklyn Cyclones (25-27)_______________________________________

    STATE COLLEGE 2, BROOKLYN 0 (Box)

    This was an ugly loss which wasted a strong performance by starter Kevin Canelon, who set a career high with 11 strikeouts.  Brooklyn only got three runners into scoring position, and two of them made costly mistakes on the basepaths: Vincent Siena was thrown out trying to take an extra base at third in the fourth and Pedro Perez was picked off second in the fifth.

    Rookie - Kingsport Mets (26-23)__________________________

    KINGSPORT 8, JOHNSON CITY 2 (Box)

    The Mets broke open a 2-2 game in the eighth with four runs, including a two-run homer by the hot-hitting Patrick Mazeika, whose season average stands at .358 with a 1.028 OPS.  Team Gonzalez turned in a somewhat wild but effective pitching performance to combine for the win.

    Rookie - GCL Mets (25-21)__________________________

    GCL CARDINALS  2, GCL METS 0 (Box)

    The Mets only managed 3 hits for the second night in a row, and were accordingly served with their second straight shutout loss.  This time they were no-hit through five, but stranded a runner in each of the last four innings, including loading the bases in the ninth only for Ali Sanchez to ground into a game-ending double play.
