Mets Daily Prospect Report, 6/2/19: Columbia comes up clutch

*All results from games played on Saturday, June 1, 2019

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (28-26)

PAWTUCKET 4, SYRACUSE 2 (BOX)

Pawtucket plated a pair of runs in the second and the third off of Zach Lee, and that would end up being all they needed. The Syracuse offense wasn’t completely listless, as infielders Danny Espinosa and Ruben Tejada both plated runs in the fourth and fifth, but that would be all they could manage against Erasmo Ramírez and the pair of relievers that followed.

• 3B Ruben Tejada: 1-2, R, 2B, RBI, K, HBP

Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (30-20)

GAME ONE

PORTLAND 8, BINGHAMTON 7 / 7 (BOX)

Binghamton scored five runs in the bottom of the first, but they wasted the lead, eventually ending the ballgame losing 8-7. Portland made their comeback in the fifth, down 6-1. The inning began with Jake Romanski reaching on a Michael Paez error and ended with Portland scoring four runs and making it a 6-5 ballgame. Paez made up for his error a bit by launching a solo home run in the bottom of the sixth, giving Binghamton a little more breathing room, but Matt Blackham gave up a three-run homer to Joey Curletta in the seventh, giving the Sea Dogs the lead. The Ponies got a runner on base in the bottom of the inning, but weren’t able to bring him home.

• CF Braxton Lee: 1-4, RBI
• SS Andres Gimenez: 1-4, R, K, SB (10)

ROSTER ALERT: RHP Andrew Church assigned to Binghamton Rumble Ponies.

Advanced-A: St. Lucie Mets (26-28)

CHARLOTTE 12, ST. LUCIE 1 (BOX)

It just wasn’t Kyle Wilson’s night. The 22-year-old right-hander threw a clunker, allowing twelve hits and giving up six runs- five earned- over three innings. He could’ve had a strong outing and only allowed the two runs he gave up in the first and still have been tagged with the loss, as St. Lucie’s offense forgot to show up to the ballgame. They managed only six hits on the night, with Matt Winaker’s RBI triple in the second their only run. With the loss, that’s a four-game skid that the St. Lucie Mets find themselves on now.

• 3B Blake Tiberi: 1-5, 2B
• 2B Carlos Cortes: 1-4, E (6)
• RF Quinn Brodey: 0-3, BB, K
• 1B Jeremy Vasquez: 1-3, BB

• C Dan Rizzie: 1-2, K
• LF Alfredo Escalera: 0-3, BB, E (1)
• RHP Kyle Wilson: 3.0 IP, 12 H, 6 R, 5 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, L (3-6)
• RHP Carlos Hernandez: 1.2 IP, 4 H, 5 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 2 HBP
• LHP Andrew Mitchell: 2.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 3 K
• LHP Blake Taylor: 1.0 IP, 1 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, WP

Low-A: Columbia Fireflies (21-34)

COLUMBIA 3, AUGUSTA 2 (BOX)

Mark Vientos put Columbia on the board early, driving in a run on a line drive double in the bottom of the first. He added another run to Columbia’s tally in the third, and Juan Uriarte added another in the fourth, which was fortuitous, as Christian James allowed a pair of GreenJacket runs in the fifth. Luckily, relievers Tylor Megill and Jose Moreno were up to the task, keeping Augusta off the board for the rest of the evening.

• CF Hansel Moreno: 0-4, 2 K
• 2B Chandler Avant: 1-3, R, BB, 2 K
• 3B Mark Vientos: 3-4, 2B, 2 RBI
• 1B Chase Chambers: 0-3, K, HBP

• RHP Christian James: 5.2 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 1 K, W (2-4)
