B-Mets Sleep With the Fishes in Bowie, 11-0
BOWIE, MD – The Bowie Baysox tagged Noah Syndergaard for a career-high eleven runs and defeated the Binghamton Mets, 11-0, on Monday night at Prince George’s Stadium. Pitching for the first time in 10 days, Syndergaard allowed nine hits and suffered his first loss as a B-Met.
The Baysox jumped on Syndergaard from his very first pitch. Kyle Hudson lined a single to right-center on the righty’s initial offering of the night, jump-starting a four-run rally. Buck Britton stroked an RBI single to put Bowie on the board and Caleb Joseph reached when the B-Mets botched a potential double play, bringing home another run. Josh Horton put a bow on the inning by lining a two-out, two-run double to the right-field corner.
Bowie continued to roll in the fourth. Following a pair of singles Britton launched a three-run homer to right field. Caleb Joseph made it back-to-back long balls with his 20th shot of the season to left, giving the Baysox an 8-0 lead. Tryavon Robinson delivered the final blow with a three-run homer in the third.
Syndergaard exited after three innings, his second-shortest outing as a B-Met. The righty surrendered nine hits, including three home runs, a career-high. Armando Rodriguez took over in the fourth and chewed up three scoreless innings. Ryan Fraser worked around a walk and hit in a shutout seventh and Jeff Walters posted a perfect eighth.
The B-Mets had no answer for Bowie starter Eduardo Rodriguez. The Baysox southpaw baffled the visitors over eight shutout innings, facing two over the minimum. Facing the B-Mets for the second time in as many starts, Rodriguez faced just two over the minimum and never allowed any runner to reach second base. Tim Bascom capped the blowout with a perfect ninth.
Syndergaard (6-1) struck out five in his first loss as a B-Met, while Rodriguez (3-3) earned the victory in his longest pro outing in the States.
