LAST GAME:
Akron walked a season-high 12 men and the BMets
bullpen held up for all nine innings filling in for Jenrry
Mejia in Binghamton’s 6-4 win over Akron Sunday afternoon
at Canal Park. With the Aeros on top 4-3 after six innings, the
B-Mets took control in the seventh with a three-run frame.
Jonathan Malo came through with a clutch two-run single to
score Lucas Duda and Emmanuel Garcia to put Binghamton
ahead for good. Malo would later score a run of insurance on
a wild pitch, making it 6-4. The B-Mets took their first lead of
the series in the fourth inning on Ike Davis’ bases-loaded, twoout
single off Major League-rehabber Aaron Laffey to give
Binghamton a 3-1 lead. Laffey went just 3.1 innings allowing
three runs on five hits with six walks. Akron took their final
lead of the game in the fifth on a two-run double from Jerad
Head which came off Edgar Alfonzo. The win went to Mike
Antonini for firing three scoreless innings allowing just a hit
and a walk. Former Akron reliever Jim Ed Warden picked up
his first save with the B-Mets by throwing a 1-2-3 ninth, including
a strikeout, to secure the win.
