Ceciliani, a member of the 2013 B-Mets, collected three RBI on a double and a single. The Madras, Oregon native hit .268 and collected a team-high 31 stolen bases in the Southern Tier last year. Jayce Boyd jump started Binghamton’s offense with a two-run double in the first inning. Boyd amassed a .330 batting average and 83 RBI between Savannah (Low-A) and St. Lucie (High-A) in 2013.
