EL AA: Binghamton 4/9/1, Bowie 6/8/0

Not quite 4 hits and 3 for XBH, but Kirk Nieuwenhuis had another very good game for Binghamton, getting on base 3 times with a single and a pair of walks, though he did K his last 2 times up, and drop his average to a pedestrian .500. DJ Wabick (3) almost hit for the cycle (triple shy). He, Carlos Guzman (2, first AA HR), and Jose Coronado (2) had multi hit games, while Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, BB, K, .231), Zach Lutz (0 for 4, .059), Emmanuel Garcia (0 for 3, BB, 2 Ks, .244) and Rafael Arroyo (0 for 2, 2 BBs, 2 Ks, .000) all took 0-fers. The Mets had 9 hits and drew 6 walks, while going 3 for 10 with RISP and leaving 7 on base.

It was a bullpen game for the Mets, with 3 relievers pitching. Jacob Ruckle gave up 5 runs in his 3 innings for the loss, his 4th.

SAL A: Savannah 4/8/0, Charleston 8/13/2

Eduardo Aldama’s lone SAL start of the season was a horror, he gave up 9 hits and 7 runs in 3+ innings to take the loss, but keep in mind he doesn’t turn 20 until after the season (12/23).

The Gnats offense had 8 hits and a walk, while going 2 for 4 with RISP and leaving 7 on base. Nick Giarraputo (3), and Juan Lagares (2) had multi hit games, while Alonzo Harris (0 for 5, 3 Ks, .231), Kai Gronauer (0 for 4, K, .242), Mike Moras (0 for 4, .348), and Jeff Flagg (0 for 4, 3 Ks, .000) took 0-fers.

NYPL A-: Brooklyn 4/6/1, Hudson Valley 5/9/2

Maybe Freddy needs to send David Wright to Brooklyn for “rehab”, huh? Another loss, combined with the Yankees 13th straight victory dropped the Cyclones 1.5 games out of first with 3 to play. However, as I noted yesterday, the loser of the division is guaranteed the wildcard, so whatever.

Carlos Beltran played 5 innings in the field today, as was the plan, and went 0 for 2 with a walk at the plate as he continues his rehab assignment.

The Conies overall had 6 hits and drew 2 walks, while going 2 for 6 with RISP and leaving 6 on base. Richard Lucas (0 for 3, BB, K, .264), Alex Gregory (0 for 4, K, .278), and Robbie Shields (0 for 3, K, .173), took 0-fers, no Cyclone had a multi hit game.

Mark Cohoon started and went the first 5, allowing just a run on 5 hits. Michael Powers gave up a pair in the 9th for his 2nd blown save and 3rd loss.
