For Immediate Release
BRIDGEWATER, NJ – The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (11-10) scored four runs in the first inning and went on to defeat the Somerset Patriots 5-1 on Wednesday night at TD Bank Ballpark. Dom Hamel (1-2) earned his first win of the year as he allowed one run on five hits over a season-long five innings with no walks and a season-high eight strikeouts.
In
the first, Matt Rudick was Binghamton’s first baserunner after singling to
center against Richard Fitts (1-3). Two batters later, with two out, Dariel Gomez hit a double down the left-field line that scored Rudick to put the
Ponies on the board. The next batter Brandon McIlwain drove home Gomez with an
RBI single to right to make it 2-0. Agustin Ruiz came up next and belted a
two-run homer off the videoboard in right to double the Ponies lead to 4-0. It’s
Ruiz first home run of the season.
Hamel
would allow one run in the fifth on an Eric Wagaman solo homer. He would end
his outing with a strikeout of Jasson Domínguez. Hamel has now lowered his ERA
to 2.18 for the season over five starts.
The
Ponies bullpen was in command as Marcel Rentería pitched two scoreless frames
and Dylan Hall closed the game out with two innings of scoreless work. Hall has
not allowed a run in six appearances with the Rumble Ponies this season.
The
two teams have now split the first two games of the series. The Rumble Ponies
continue the Double-A Subway Series with the Patriots (13-9) on Thursday night
with first pitch at 6:35 PM and the NYCM Insurance Pregame Show starting at
6:20 PM.
