The PawSox used power and patience to earn the victory as Kevin Frandsen and Daniel Nava had home runs. Frandsen's homer with one out in the first got them on the board; following a single and a double, back-to-back walks to Mark Wagner and Dusty Brown by Herd starter Bobby Livingston gave Pawtucket a 2-0, first-inning lead. Wagner and Nava drew walks around a Brown double in the fourth inning to load the bases again against Livingston. Sacrifice flies from Matt Sheely and Josh Reddick pushed the PawSox's lead to 4-1. - link
Two days after Binghamton Mets starting pitcher Eric Niesen walked off the field at NYSEG Stadium after a harrowing scene, there were still no clear answers about his status. The team's Opening Day starter was drilled in the back of the head by a throw from his catcher, Mike Nickeas, who was attempting to throw out a base-stealer Friday night. "I think there was some testing done, and the medical staff is grappling with that right now, with what they're going to do," manager Tim Teufel said Sunday. - link
