BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (29-29) fell to the Somerset Patriots, 12-5, on Thursday night at Mirabito Stadium, after Somerset exploded for six runs in the eighth inning. The Patriots lead the series, 2-1.
It was a back-and-forth affair until Somerset (30-30) took a four-run lead in the fourth inning. Despite a potential comeback bid for Binghamton, the Patriots added six runs in the eighth to take a commanding seven-run lead.
In the top of the second, J.C. Escarra belted a solo home run to give Somerset a 1-0 lead against Joander Suarez (3-4). Escarra finished the game with three hits and four runs batted in for the second-straight contest.
Down 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Alex Ramírez doubled, and Rowdey Jordan followed with a go-ahead two-run homer off Brock Selvidge (6-4) to give Binghamton a 2-1 lead. It marked Jordan's fourth home run of the season.
Somerset grabbed the lead back with a five-run fourth inning. The first five batters reached base and all of them scored, highlighted by a three-run double from Escarra and two-run homer from Elijah Dunham that put the Patriots up 6-2.
Binghamton chipped away to bring the game within one run. In the fifth, Omar De Los Santos singled and eventually scored on a passed ball and Ramírez later scored on an error to cut the deficit to 6-4. In the sixth, De Los Santos drove in Jaylen Palmer with a sacrifice fly that made it 6-5.
The Patriots extended their lead to 12-5 with a six-run eighth inning, highlighted by an RBI double from Dunham, RBI fielder's choice from Spencer Jones, a two-run double from Agustin Ramirez, and a two-run single from Tyler Hardman.
The Rumble Ponies continue their six-game series with the Somerset Patriots at Mirabito Stadium on Friday night. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. and the game will be broadcast live on WNBF News Radio 1290 & 92.1 FM.
