Josh Stinson suffered his worst loss of the season, allowing eight runs over 1 1/3 innings, and Binghamton fell 15-5 to the New Hampshire Fisher Cats at Merchantsauto.com Stadium Tuesday night. Brahiam Maldonado was a bright spot with a 2-for-4 showing, which extended his season-long hitting streak to eight games. Binghamton (58-62) fell behind early as the Fisher Cats struck first with a pair of homers off Stinson. With two outs, the starting right-hander walked Eric Thames leading to Major League rehabber John Buck. The 2010 American League All-Star catcher smacked a 2-0 fastball from Stinson out to deep center for the first of his two home runs on the night. Stinson proceeded to walk the next hitter, Adam Calderone, before giving up another two-run blast, this time at the hands of David Cooper, handing the Fisher Cats a 4-0 lead. New Hampshire (70-51) extended their lead in the second. The first three batters of the inning reached against Stinson. Adeiny Hechavarria stepped in with the bags packed and hit a fielder’s choice to second, chasing home Callix Crabbe. After walking the next hitter to load the bases again, the starter was pulled in favor of Eddie Kunz. On Kunz’s second pitch, Buck cracked a grand slam to right, upping the Fisher Cats’ advantage to 9-0. Hechevarria drove in two more in the third with a bases-loaded single off Kunz, making it 11-0 after three innings. Kyle Drabek, meanwhile, threw up zeroes in the first three innings. However, he ran into trouble in the fourth. Eric Campbell walked to lead off and was joined on base when Jordany Valdespin singled to right. Maldonado followed and got the B-Mets on the board with a ringing double into the left-field corner, plating Campbell. Jon Malo and Jose Coronado followed it up with RBI groundouts to second, making it 3-0. With the bases empty and two outs, Drabek appeared out of the woods, but the ace righty walked Josh Satin to prolong the inning. Sean Ratliff kept the inning rolling with a single to center. Mike Nickeas and Marshall Hubbard made it count with back-to-back, run-scoring singles, bringing Binghamton within striking distance, 11-5. The Fisher Cats closed the door on Binghamton the rest of the way, however. Drabek got out of a bases-loaded, no-out jam in the fifth unscathed, which proved to be the final good scoring chance for the B-Mets. Drabek was credited with his Eastern League-leading 13th win, despite allowing five runs on nine hits over five innings. He also walked a season-worst six men. After adding a single run in the fourth, Calderone closed the scoring for New Hampshire with a three-run homer in the seventh off Chris Schwinden, creating the final margin, 15-5. Satin went 2-for-4 with a double and a walk and has now hit in 17 of his last 18 games, upping his average to .329.
