Binghamton 1, Portland 3, Game 1

Brad Holt had a very mixed outing tonight, on one hand, he gave up 3 runs on 3 hits and a walk, on the other, he struck out 10 in 5 innings to take his 3rd loss. Ike Davis homered to account for the only BMet run, it is Davis’ 3rd homer in his last 4 games. However, none have been hit off lefties, and Davis is 3 for 18 vs LHP in AA (.167/.286/.222/.508). He, Lucas Duda and Josh Petersen had the only hits for the Mets.

Binghamton 2, Portland 6, Game 2

Jacob Ruckle got destroyed in a spot start, giving up all 6 Sea Dog runs in just 1.2 innings to take the loss. The Mets offense had 10 hits, while going just 2 for 10 with RISP, and leaving 7 on base. Emmanuel Garcia, Jon Malo and Shawn Bowman had multi hit games, while DJ Wabick (0 for 3, RBI, K, .283), and Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, K, .153) took 0-fers.

St. Lucie 9, Palm Beach 8

It was a back and forth seesaw affair tonight, which saw the Mets trail 5-0, then 6-1 before tying it in the 5th, only to fall behind 7-6, then take the lead with 2 in the 8th, only to see Manuel Alvarez allow the tying run (8-8), only to see a walkoff single by Hector Pellot.

Scott Moviel got blitzed for 8 hits and 6 runs (5 earned) in just 3.1 innings. Alvarez blew the save and got the win, his 3rd.

The Mets offense had 11 hits and drew 8 walks, while going 6 for 16 (.375) with RISP, leaving 12 on base. Hector Pellot, Brahiam Maldonado, Stefan Welch and Seth Williams had multi hit games, while Greg Veloz (0 for 4, BB, 2 Ks, .244), Angel Pagan (0 for 2, run, 2 BBs, .375), and Rafael Arroyo (0 for 3, RBI, K, .091) took 0-fers.

Savannah 3, Lexington 7

The boxscore is incorrect, I have the correct pitching lines below.

Allen had a very uneven outing, outside of 2 homers, he was dinked and dunked to death, and wasn’t even in the game when 1 of the 3 runs he gave up scored. Still, giving up 2 homers as a groundball pitcher isn’t a good sign, but it happens (Pelfrey gave up 3 in Cincy…). Overall, Allen gave up 4 runs, 3 earned in 5 innings for his 5th loss. He has a woeful 5.44 era as a starter this year in 48 innings pitched, and a stellar 2.49 era as a reliever in 25.1 innings pitched. All of his periphials are in line, however, except for a .202 BAA relieving, and a .290 starting (attributable to Savannah’s woeful defense).

The Gnats offense had 7 hits and 2 walks, while going 2 for 7 (.286) with RISP, leaving 6 on base. Jefry Marte and Josh Satin had multi hit games, while Wilmer, Eric Campbell (0 for 4, K, .255), Jordan Abruzzo (0 for 3, BB, 2 Ks), Jose Jimenez (0 for 2, .111) and Evan LeBlanc (0 for 4, 2 Ks, .128) took 0-fers.

Brooklyn 4, Aberdeen 5 in 12 innings

Ronnie jinxed them. Brooklyn lost for just the 3rd time in 19 games, 5-4. Michael Powers took the loss, giving up a run, after being pushed to a 3rd inning (he’s normally a 1 inning reliever). Wes Wrenn started and was terrific, giving up a run on 7 hits in 6 innings, but Sam Martinez gave up 3 runs without retiring a batter (Matias Carrillo allowed 2 of his 3 IHR to score).

The offense had just 11 hits and 3 walks, while going 2 for 9 with RISP and leaving 10 on base. John Servidio, Sam Honeck and Alex Gregory had multi hit games, while Nick Giarraputo (0 for 4, BB, .206), Ralph Henriquez (0 for 6, K, .216), Luis Rivera (0 for 5, .368) and Luis Nieves (0 for 5, 2 Ks, .179) all took 0-fers.

Kingsport 10, Elizabethon 7

The Mets tried this whole “score 10″ thing again, this time coming out on the right side with a win. 5 players had multi hit games, led by Pedro Zapata’s 4 hit game out of the 8 hole, as every regular had a hit, totalling up to a 16 hit 7 walk outburst. The Mets went 6 for 18 with RISP, leaving 11 on base.

Angel Cuan got pounded for 10 hits and 6 runs (4 earned) over 5 innings, but his offense bailed him out. Sam Taveras, working 3 innings for a second straight outing, picked up the win, despite giving up a run. Travis Babin picked up his second save.
