BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (1-1, 36-33) sprinted past the Portland Sea Dogs, 8-0, in their third shutout win of the season on Thursday night at Mirabito Stadium.
Brandon Sproat (3-0) earned the victory with six scoreless frames, while allowing five hits and two walks with three strikeouts. Jordan Geber got a hold with two scoreless frames, while allowing one hit and one walk with one strikeout. Paul Gervase pitched a perfect ninth inning on just seven pitches to cement the shoutout.

The Ponies scored first in the second inning against Portland's (1-1, 37-34) starting pitcher Juan Daniel Encarnacion (0-3). Rowdey Jordan hit an RBI single that scored JT Schwartz. In the sixth inning, Jordan drew an RBI walk that put Binghamton up 2-0.
Later in the game, Binghamton exploded for six runs in the eighth inning to go up 8-0. The Ponies brought 10 hitters to the plate and six of them scored. The frame was highlighted by Stanley Consuegra's RBI hit by pitch, Wyatt Young's two-run single, Alex Ramírez's RBI double, and Ryan Clifford's sacrifice fly.
