• 2B Jeff McNeil  2-5, 2B, 2 RBI(.330/.405/.617)
• RF Zach Borenstein 2-5, 2 R(.253/.350/.486)

After the Dodgers tied it in the fifth, Patrick Kivlehan regained the lead with a RBI single, scoring Ty Kelly. The 51s offense was held silent until the tenth when a costly error from Dodger shortstop Angelo Mora gave the Mets the lead, which Jacob Rhame would not relinquish.

• RHP Drew Gagnon (1-3, 5.31 ERA): 7 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 7 K

• RHP Jacob Rhame (1-1, 4.41 ERA): 2 IP, 1 H, 0 R, K

Gagnon continued his strong stretch with seven innings of one-run ball. After an awful start to the season, he’s allowed only five runs over his last 18 innings. Manager Tony DeFrancesco left the eighth inning in the hands of Drew Smith, who shockingly struggled and gave up the game-tying run. With a runner already on second base to start the tenth frame, Jacob Rhame pitched a perfect inning to hold the Dodgers off the scoreboard.

• RHP Matt Blackham (4-1, 1.63 ERA) 1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 K, 3 BB

Scott Copeland had his worst outing with Binghamton so far and the Alonso-less Rumble Ponies were not able to make up the difference. Until yesterday, Copeland had been a consistent force in Bingo’s rotation. but yesterday, he only lasted until the sixth inning and then David Roseboom relieved him. Although he’s been historically better against lefties, Roseboom holding righties to a sub-two ERA and lefties to a 2.25 ERA. Although he struggled in yesterday’s contest, it’s still been a pretty strong month of June for the southpaw. Matt Blackham tossed a perfect ninth to finish off the game.

• 2B Josh Allen 1-4, HR, RBI, R (.313/.421/.500)
• LF Kevin Taylor 2-3, BB(.279/.336/.365)
• DH Tim Tebow 2-4, 2 2B, 2 RBI(.245/.327/.380)

Allen has gone 5-for-16 in his first four games with the Rumble Ponies. But that would be the only offense they produced until the seventh inning when Tim Tebow doubled in two. Joey Terdoslavich recorded only his second hit with the Rumble Ponies with his seventh inning single. Tomas Nido‘s struggles continued as he went 0-for-4 to decrease his OPS to .669.

• LF Gene Cone 1-5, 2B, RBI(.258/.320/.287)

Gimenez stole his league leading 23rd base. Desmond Lindsay‘s struggles against righties continued as his overall line dropped to .219/.336/.332. Brandon Brosher‘s season-long slump persisted as he went 0-for-4 with three K’s.

• RHP Alex Palsha (2-0, 4.70 ERA) 2 IP, H, 3 K, BB

Gabriel Llanes’s night lasted an inning too long. After the fifth, he was cruising along, only allowing two homers. However the Jays proceeded to eat him up in the sixth and he was unable to complete the frame. Although the Mets fought back the following inning, Matt Pobereyko uncharacteristically struggled as he gave up three runs.

Brooklyn (4-1) 7, Hudson Valley (2-3) 5 Box

• SS Oliver Pascual :2-4, 2 RBI, R (.417/.417/.417)
• CF Jose Miguel Medina: 2-5, 2 2B, 1 R(.429/.523/.619)

The Cyclones made up for their poor offense in the earlier innings with a come-from-behind victory. As soon as starter Blake Pflughaupt left the game, the Cyclones began teeing off of their bullpen. After Hudson Valley took the lead in the sixth inning, the Mets got one run back on the strength of back-to-back doubles from David Miranda and Chandler Avant. An inning later, a Jose Brizuela dinger gave the Mets the lead. They would quickly give it back, but thanks to a clutch Pascual single, the Cyclones claimed the victory.

• RHP Mac Lozer (0-0,0.00 ERA): 1 IP, 2 H, 0 R
