New Hampshire 10 - Binghamton 4


BINGHAMTON, NY – Fisher Cats shortstop Santiago Espinal drove in six runs, highlighting his night with a grand slam, in New Hampshire’s 10-4 win over the Binghamton Rumble Ponies on Wednesday night at NYSEG Stadium. Espinal’s career day at the plate helped the Fisher Cats claim the rubber game victory.

New Hampshire cracked the scoreboard with a four-run third inning, plating their first two runs on the strength of two singles and a pair of errors. Espinal capped the big early inning by stroking a two-run single to center.

Binghamton chipped away at the deficit in the third on an Andres Gimenez RBI double. In the fourth, Kevin Kaczmarski zipped a run-scoring single to center before Braxton Lee deposited a two-run double off the left-field wall, tying the game at four.
After the Fisher Cats grabbed the lead back on a run-scoring passed ball in the sixth, Espinal broke the game open in the eighth. With the bases full, he launched Matt Blackham’s payoff pitch over the wall in left, giving the visitors a six-run edge.
Only two of the five runs charged to Rumble Ponies starter David Peterson (0-1) were earned in the loss. He walked three and struck out two over a season-best 5-1/3 innings.
