5/10 Minor League Report! DUDA, BOWMAN!

Buffalo 1, Norfolk 3

Another game, another woeful offensive showing from the Bisons. This time, they managed just a run on 4 hits and 3 walks, going 1 for 11 with RISP and leaving 5 on base. Cory Sullivan (1 for 3, BB, K, .208), Argenis Reyes (white hot Argenis Reyes, 2 for 3, run, 2b, BB, .328 today; 10 for his last 20) and Mike Lamb (1 for 3, 2b, RBI, BB, .098) had the hits, everyone else took 0-fers. Nelson Figueroa pitched well, giving up just 2 runs in 7 innings, but he again took a tough luck loss.

Binghamton 3, Trenton 4

Stay hot Shawn Bowman. He’s on an 8 game hitting streak, batting .485 over that stretch (16 for 33, 7 runs, 2 2b, 3b, 3 HR, 7 RBI, 1/5 BB/K), and has 5 straight multi hit games (13 for 21) over the 5 games. Lucas Duda also had a multi hit game, while Emmanuel Garcia (0 for 4, RBI, K, .261), and Carl Loadenthal (0 for 2, BB, .258) took 0-fers. The Mets had 10 hits and drew 4 walks, but were just 2 for 11 with RISP and left 9 on base.

Ryan Coultas started for the Mets, and was good over his 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. Stephen Clyne (in his AA debut) allowed a run on 2 hits in 2 innings to blow a 3-2 lead, and then Roy Merritt allowed a leadoff homer in the bottom of the 9th to take the loss. After starting his AA career off with 10.2 scoreless innings, Merritt’s allowed 7 runs in his last 5.1 innings, a very bloated 11.81 era, with 3 losses in his last 6 appearances.
