Binghamton 8 - Trenton 0


Trenton's offense was shut down for the third straight game, this time by the Binghamton Mets in a three-hit shutout, 8-0, Tuesday night at NYSEG Stadium. Erik Goeddel combined with two relievers on the blanking, and the Thunder have now been held to just two total runs and 11 total hits in their last three games.
Goeddel (5-2) allowed the first two batters in the first inning to reach - a walk to Ramon Flores and a single to Slade Heathcott - then proceeded to retire the next 16 straight. He worked seven innings and permitted two hits while striking out four.
Cesar Puello and Danny Muno each drove home three runs for the Mets. Muno's RBI double finished a two-out, two-run rally in the second inning against Trenton starter Zach Nuding (2-7) that gave Binghamton the lead for good.
Puello homered against Nuding in the third - his ninth of the season and fourth in four games played against the Thunder. He later lined a two-run double in the seventh to increase the lead to 5-0. 
Danny Burawa, just activated from the disabled list prior to the game, allowed three runs in the eighth including Muno's two-run double. Binghamton out-hit Trenton 14-3 on the night.
The second of the three-game series will be played Wednesday night beginning at 6:35 pm. Right-hander Mikey O'Brien (3-0, 2.48) is expected to start for the Thunder while the Mets counter with southpaw Mark Cohoon (3-2, 3.97). Radio coverage on 91.3 FM (WTSR), 1940 AM (WBCB) and also streaming online begins at 6:20 pm.
