LAST GAME: New Hampshire cracked four homers, accounting
for 11 of its 15 runs in a 15-5 rout of the B-Mets last night at
Merchantsauto.com Stadium Tuesday night. Josh Stinson
bore the brunt of the blow with his worst loss to date. The right
-hander allowed eight runs on five hits over 1.1 innings. He
walked four and gave up two homers. Major League rehabbing
catcher John Buck led the way with a pair of homers in
four trips to the plate, driving in six runs in the process. The
Fisher Cats led 11-0 after three innings. Binghamton rebounded
by batting around in the fourth. 10 men came to the
plate and chalked up five runs against New Hampshire starter
Kyle Drabek to get the B-Mets back in the game. That proved
to be all the offense for Binghamton though as the bullpen
would shut it down the rest of the way. Drabek picked up his
league-leading 13th win despite allowing five runs on nine hits
over five innings. Brahiam Maldonado went 2-4 with a double
and an RBI to pace Binghamton.
STARTING PITCHING MATCHUP: LHP Mark Cohoon looks to
bulid upon his best Double-A start tonight in the middle game
of the series. He worked seven, strong innings at Harrisburg
August 10 and limited the Senators to just a run on three hits
with five strikeouts to win his second game. Cohoon is 2-3
with a 5.80 over nine starts (45 IP). He opened the season
with Savannah and racked up a 7-1 mark and a measly 1.30
ERA over 13 starts (90.1 IP). His ERA paced the South Atlantic
League, as did his three shutouts. Cohoon was a New York-
Penn League All-Star last season with Brooklyn (SS-A) thanks
to a 9-2 record and a 2.15 ERA over 92 innings. The Mets
drafted him in the 12th round of the June 2008 draft out of
North Central Texas College.
RHP Zach Stewart gets the call for his 23rd start with the
Fisher Cats. He has garnered no-decisions in his last four
starts, including his most recent outing, August 13 at Altoona,
where he hurled 4.2 innings and allowed three runs on eight
hits. Stewart is 8-2 with a 3.75 ERA over 120 innings. Tonight
is his fifth start against the B-Mets. He is 1-1 with a 6.98 ERA
over 19.1 innings against Binghamton. Stewart opened 2009
as a starter in the Reds organization, making 14 starts in
between Sarasota (High-A) and Carolina (AA). However, he
finished as a reliever with 20 appearances in Triple-A. The
third-round pick of the Reds in 2008 out of Texas Tech was
traded to Toronto along with Edwin Encarnacion and Josh
Roenicke for Scott Rolen last season.
