Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (8-9)
SCRANTON/WILKES-BARRE 4, SYRACUSE 1 (BOX)
Christian Scott was a hard-luck loser on the night. Scott, who is making a very strong case to be the first Syracuse Met called up to the big league squad if there is a need, surrendered just two hits in his five and one third innings of work, though both hits drove in a run for the RailRiders. He struck out five and walked just one.
Offensively, the Mets just did not have it going for them. No one had more than one hit, with the only run coming on a solo home
run by Nick Morabito, which made a 3-0 deficit a 3-1 deficit.

Double-A: Binghamton Rumble Ponies (5-5)
AKRON 3, BINGHAMTON 0 / 7 (BOX)
Binghamton and Akron played a rain-shortened affair, with the game only going seven innings and having a delay that was 43 minutes longer than the two hour game time.
Binghamton’s bats simply did not show up, collecting just one hit, a Kevin Parada single in the seventh. They did walk six times, so they had some traffic on the basepaths, but one hit just is not gonna cut it.
Zach Thornton pitched well, surrendering two runs in five innings, but had no run support.

High-A: Brooklyn Cyclones (3-7)
GREENSBORO 15, BROOKLYN 4 (BOX)
Well, 15-4 is pretty self-explanatory.
The game was close in the early stages, as the Cyclones and Grasshoppers were tied at one apiece after two innings, and Brooklyn trailed 3-1 after three. It completely fell apart in the sixth inning, where Brooklyn surrendered eight runs in the frame, with Tanner Witt wearing six of them. They gave up four more in the eighth but it was over and done with by then.

Single-A: St. Lucie Mets (5-6)
DAYTONA 17, ST. LUCIE 13 (BOX)
As the score would suggest, this was a wild one.
St. Lucie actually led this game handily at one point. Randy Guzman put them ahead 2-0 with a home run in the first. Elian Peña made it 3-0 with a straight steal of home, which was a really heads up play. Branny De Oleo doubled home a pair to make it 5-0 in the fourth, and they plated two more in the fifth on a Guzman triple and AJ Salgado sacrifice fly.
It all fell apart from there.
The St. Lucie bullpen surrendered five runs in each of the fifth, sixth and seventh innings, turning a 7-0 lead into a 15-8 deficit in the blink of an eye (Sam Robertson drove in a run in the sixth but the timing of the RBI messes up the narrative flow of the 15 runs in five innings that were surrendered).
Daytona added two more in the eighth, making it 17-8. St. Lucie actually tried to answer back, coring five runs in the ninth, but the lead was insurmountable.
