Box Score

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. – The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (2-5, 37-37) fell to the Hartford Yard Goats, 8-7, in a wild game on Tuesday night at Mirabito Stadium.

The Ponies nearly tied the game in the bottom of the ninth, but pinch-runner Wyatt Young was thrown out at the plate by the left fielder Sterlin Thompson to end the game after a Stanley Consuegra two-out single.

Binghamton grabbed the lead in the second inning on an RBI double from Consuegra and RBI walk from Ryan Clifford, which made it 2-0.

Hartford (5-2, 43-32) then scored five unanswered runs. In the third, Warming Bernabel drove in a run on a groundout to cut Binghamton's lead to 2-1. In the fourth, Hartford scored on Zach Kokoska's RBI double, Adael Amador's RBI single, an RBI fielder's choice from Ryan Ritter, and an RBI walk from Braxton Fulford, which put Hartford up 5-2.

Binghamton then scored four unanswered runs to take a 6-5 lead. Jaylen Palmer scored on a wild pitch and Matt Rudick scored on a balk in the fourth inning. In the sixth, Palmer walked and Rudick reached first on a dropped third strike, before Alex Ramírez smoked a go-ahead two-run double.

Hartford then scored three more unanswered runs. In the seventh, Braiden Ward hit an RBI double and Bladimir Restituyo hit an RBI single against Josh Hejka (0-1). In the eighth, Bernabel scored from second on an error, which put Hartford up 8-6.

In the home half of the eighth, Ramírez hit an RBI single to cut Binghamton's deficit to 8-7. The Ponies threatened in the ninth against Seth Halvorsen, with Parada's leadoff double, but the potential-tying-run was thrown out at home plate to end the game.

The Rumble Ponies continue their six-game home-and-home series against the Hartford Yard Goats (Double-A affiliate of the Colorado Rockies) with the third of three games at Mirabito Stadium on Wednesday night. First pitch is set for 5:45 p.m. and the game will be broadcast live on WNBF News Radio 1290 & 92.1 FM and MiLB.TV.
