Jonathan Malo reached base in all five of his plate appearances, including a game-winning two run single with the bases loaded in the seventh inning, and Binghamton took advantage of a season-high 13 walks issued by Akron in a 6-4 win at Canal Park Sunday afternoon. Malo notched two hits and three walks with two RBIs and two runs scored to pace the B-Mets.
Binghamton (28-46) was in a 4-3 hole entering the seventh inning, but Lucas Duda got the inning started off right with a double into the alleyway in right-center. Emmanuel Garcia was summoned to pinch-hit for Salvador Paniagua with the intent of bunting the tying run up to third. With two strikes, Garcia laid a bunt down that reliever Josh Judy picked up and fired to third. However, Duda slid in ahead of third baseman Jerad Head’s tag and Garcia reached on the sacrifice. The mission was similar for Ruben Tejada, who bunted Garcia up to second. Malo then struck the crippling blow, a bloop single into shallow right that scored Duda and Garcia to put the B-Mets out in front for good 5-4.
Another run came across in the inning, as Malo scored on a Matt Meyer wild pitch making it 6-4.
The B-Mets scored three runs in the first four innings off starter Aaron Laffey, who was making his second rehab start with Aeros. Laffey gave up a two-run, bases-loaded single to Ike Davis in the fourth, which knocked him out of the game with Binghamton on top 3-1. The southpaw walked seven men in 3.1 innings to take a no-decision.
Akron (50-24) retook the lead 4-3 in the fifth inning when Head lined a double into the left-field corner off reliever Edgar Alfonzo, plating Armando Camacaro and Kyle Haines.
Mike Antonini provided three solid innings out of the pen to secure his fifth win, and first as a reliever. He held the Aeros scoreless from the sixth through eighth innings allowing just a hit and a walk.
Former Akron reliever, Jim Ed Warden earned his first save in a B-Mets uniform with a scoreless ninth, including a strikeout.
Judy was hung with loss as he allowed three runs in an inning of work to drop to 3-3 on the season. He had won his last two appearances.
Binghamton’s win ended the Aeros three-game winning streak and broke the B-Mets three-game losing skid
