 Mack’s Daily Minors Recap    -    9-1-2022 Games

 

AAA - 

The Syracuse Mets won the first game and lost the second in a Thursday night doubleheader at the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, giving the RailRiders a two games to one lead so far in the six-game series. 

Game one of the doubleheader would go the Mets way. 

First, the Mets tied the game with a lone run in the top of the fourth. Dominic Smith was on base with two outs when Daniel Palka strode to the plate. Palka promptly lined a sharp drive to the centerfield warning track. 

In the fifth, the Mets took the lead with another lone run. Gosuke Katoh singled starting the inning and moved up to second on a one-out single from Travis Jankowski. Jake Mangum then lined out, leaving Syracuse in danger of leaving two runners on base. It wouldn’t happen as the next batter, Smith, grounded a single into left field that scored Katoh and gave the Mets a 2-1 lead that they would never relinquish. 

Syracuse was still seeking security with its late lead, and the Mets got it with a pair of runs in the top of the sixth. A Palka walk and a Nick Plummer double put runners on second and third with one out. Katoh then strode to the plate and singled into left field, scoring Palka easily for a 3-1 edge.  The next batter, Michael Pérez, singled home another run when he laced a drive into right field. Katoh scored on the play, giving Syracuse a 4-1 lead. 

Bryce Montes de Oca  earned Syracuse a 4-1 win in game one of the doubleheader. It was the eighth save of the season for Montes de Oca in ten tries at the Triple-A level. 

In game two  Nate Fisher was once again brilliant out of the bullpen, tossing three scoreless innings on just one hit with no walks and two strikeouts.
