EL AA: Binghamton 7/8/2, Portland 8/13/1

Jenrry Mejia had a very rough outing tonight, giving up 4 runs on 5 hits and 3 walks in just 3.2 innings, but a Shawn Bowman 3 run HR in the 8th got him off the hook. Edgar Alfonzo gave up a run in the top of the 9th (Julio De La Cruz allowed an IHR to score), to take his 5th loss of the season.

The Mets offense had 8 hits and 3 walks, while going 2 for 6 with RISP and leaving 4 on base. Jose Coronado and Shawn Bowman hit HRs, while Ruben Tejada (2)had the only multi hit game, and Caleb Stewart (0 for 3, run, BB, 2 Ks, .224) and Rafael Arroyo (0 for 3, K, .000) took 0-fers.

SAL A: Savannah 5/11/0, Augusta 1/3/1

Armando Rodriguez' A debut was stellar, until he ran into 6th inning control issues, issuing 3 walks in the inning. Only one run scored against him, though (an IHR Rhiner Cruz allowed to score), and he earned his first win. Rodriguez allowed just a hit and that one run over 5.2 innings, with 9 Ks.

The Gnats offense had 11 hits and 3 walks, while going 4 for 11 (.364) with RISP and leaving 7 on base. Raul Reyes (2), Nick Giarraputo (2), Mike Moras (2), and Joey August (2) had multi hit games, while Josh Satin (0 for 3, BB, 2 Ks, .285) and Evan LeBlanc (0 for 2, RBI, K, .181) took 0-fers.

NYPL A-: Brooklyn 4/9/1, Oneonta 3/10/1

Chris Hilliard's Brooklyn debut was a success, he allowed an UER on 5 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings for the win. Michael Powers allowed a run in the 9th, but escaped with his 16th save (boy, he's dicey, huh?).

The Conies offense garnered 9 hits and 5 walks, while going 3 for 13 (.231) with RISP and leaving 10 on base. Jordany Valdespin (2) and Luis Rivera (2) had multi hit games, while Robbie Shields (0 for 4, BB, K, .171), and Ralph Henriquez (0 for 4, .241) took 0-fers.

APPY R: Kingsport 9/12/1, Elizabethon 10/15/2

Haven't had one of these games in a while. The KMets bullpen imploded in the 7th inning, with Tim Chism and Sam Taveras combining to give up 6 runs in the inning, turning a 7-4 lead into a 10-7 deficit. Single runs in the 8th and 9th brought Kingsport within 1, but they fell short in their comeback attempt. Angel Cuan started and was not good, giving up 4 runs on 7 hits in 5 innings, but he was in line for the win before the 7th inning implosion.

The Mets had 12 hits and a pair of walks, while going 2 for 7 (.286) with RISP and leaving 3 on base. Alonzo Harris (2), Cesar Puello (2), Juan Torres (2) and Luis Nieves (2) had multi hit games, while Joe Bonfe (0 for 3, run, BB, K, .319) took the only 0-fer.
