Triple-A - Syracuse Mets (29-29)

ROCHESTER 6, SYRACUSE 2 (BOX)

Syracuse fell 6-2 in an unremarkable loss to Rochester. Casey Coleman lasted only four innings in his start, allowing two runs while striking out four. Zach Lee relieved him with 4+ innings of his own, but allowed another four runs that put the game well out of reach for a sleepy Met offense. Danny Espinosa had the only RBI for Syracuse, launching a solo home run in the eighth, with the other Syracuse run scoring on a wild pitch in the third.

Double-A - Binghamton Rumble Ponies (31-22)

BINGHAMTON 7, HARRISBURG 5 (BOX)

Both teams traded hay-makers early, but a late bomb put Binghamton on top in a 7-5 win. The Rumble Ponies scored three runs in the top of the first, with Barrett Barnes, David Thompson, and Ali Sanchez all tallying RBIs. Mickey Jannis gave those runs right back, loading the bases before recording an out, then allowing a two-run single and being hurt by a passed ball. Binghamton responded in turn, scoring two runs in the top of the second on a throwing error, but Jannis again couldn’t hold the lead, allowing Harrisburg to tie the game at five. The game remained tied until the sixth, when Jason Krizan launched a two-run home run to left field that put Binghamton on top for good Adonis Uceta got the win after 2.2 scoreless innings of relief, and Matt Blackham blew away the Senators for a two inning save.

Advanced-A - St. Lucie Mets (29-29)

ST. LUCIE 7, TAMPA 3 (BOX)

A couple of long balls paved the way for St. Lucie’s 7-3 win over the Tampa Tarpons. Blake Tiberi got things started with a solo home run in the third, and Tiberi, Yoel Romero, and Carlos Cortes all drove in a run in the fifth to establish a 4-0 lead. Tony Dibrell made that lead stand up with 5.1 scoreless innings, striking out five and walking three to earn his fourth win of the season. Carlos Hernandez stumbled in relief, but a two-run single from Jacob Zanon and a solo home run from Carlos Cortes in the seventh got those runs right back. Blake Taylor cruised through two perfect innings to close out the game.
