Date: June 19, 2024 By: Matt Levine
AKRON, Ohio – Rowdey Jordan belted a go-ahead grand slam in the seventh inning for the Binghamton Rumble Ponies (33-30) and Joander Suarez spun seven innings of one-run ball in the contest to lead the Ponies to a 4-1 win over the Akron RubberDucks at Canal Park on Wednesday.
Down 1-0 in the seventh, Drake Osborn hit a leadoff double off the wall in left field and Wyatt Young singled against Ryan Webb (1-6), who did not allow a run over his first six innings. Jordan Jones came in out of the bullpen and walked Matt Rudick to load up the bases for Jordan with no outs. Jordan hit a grand slam to center field off the batter's eye that traveled 419 feet with a 103.8 miles per hour exit velocity. It marked Jordan's sixth homer of the season.
Jordan went 3-for-5 with the grand slam, two singles, and stolen base. He extended his hitting streak to 10 games, which marks the first 10-game hitting streak for a Binghamton player this season.
Suarez (4-4) earned the victory and spun a season-long and career-high-tying seven innings with five strikeouts, while allowing seven hits and no walks.
Akron (35-30) scored its lone run in the first inning. Alexfri Planez and Joe Lampe hit back-to-back singles to put runners at the corners. Planez scored when Lampe got into a rundown attempting to steal second base before he was tagged out to end the inning.
Daniel Juarez struck out two batters over a scoreless eighth inning. Paul Gervase earned his fourth save of the season with two strikeouts in a perfect ninth inning.
The Rumble Ponies continue their road series with the Akron RubberDucks (Double-A affiliate of the Cleveland Guardians) at Canal Park on Thursday night. First pitch is set for 6:35 p.m. and the game will be broadcast live on WNBF News Radio 1290 & 92.1 FM.
