Syracuse was suspended due to rain, the Rumble Ponies offense couldn’t get out of the blocks, Eli Serrano was a factor on offense and defense and St. Lucie lost in extra-innings on Thursday.
Triple-A
Syracuse Mets (29-42) 0, Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (45-26) 3/ SUSPENDED TOP 2ND
The Syracuse/Jacksonville game was suspended due to weather in the top of the second inning. It will be resumed at 4:05 P.M. as part of a doubleheader on Friday, June 20th.
Double-A
Binghamton Rumble Ponies (43-21) 2, Harrisburg Senators (33-33) 4
- SS Jett Williams – 0-for-4, 2 K (.921 OPS)
- CF Nick Morabito – 2-for-3, 1 R, 2 SB (26), 1 BB, 1 K (.794 OPS)
- RF Ryan Clifford – 0-for-3, 1 BB (.825 OPS)
- DH Nick Lorusso – 2-for-4, 1 R, HR (3), 2 RBI (30), 2 K (.755 OPS)
Nick Lorusso was the offense today, as only three other Rumble Ponies managed hits – none for extra-bases and only drew two walks. Kevin Parada‘s uneven season continues, as he has struck out in nine of his last 12 at-bats but has ridden a 2025 power surge to a .695 OPS.
- RHP Jonathan Pintaro (3.40 ERA) 3 2/3 IP, 7H, 2 ER, 6 K, 1 HR allowed (52 of 73 pitches for strikes)
- RHP Cameron Foster (1.53 ERA) 2 1/3 IP, 4 K
- RHP Ryan Lambert (3.24 ERA) 1/3 IP, 1 H, 2 ER, 2 BB
Jonathan Pintaro struggled through three and two-third innings, requiring 72 pitches to get him to that point. Ryan Lambert has his first real stumble since his promotion to Double-A, giving up the lead with a one-third of an inning appearance where he allowed two earned runs, walked two and gave up a hit. Prior to this, Lambert hadn’t allowed a run since June 4th. Former Mets farmhand Junior Santos got the save for Harrisburg.
High-A
Brooklyn Cyclones (46-20) 6, Aberdeen IronBirds (24-41) 4
BOX SCORE
- CF A.J. Ewing – 1-for-5 (.800 OPS)
- DH Boston Baro – 1-for-3, 3B, 1 RBI (22), 1 BB, 1 K (.614 OPS)
- SS Marco Vargas – 3-for-4, 2 R, 2 RBI (23), SB (22), 1 BB (.655 OPS)
- 1B Jacob Reimer – 2-for-5, 2B, 1 R, 3 K (.904 OPS)
- RF Carson Benge – 1-for-5, SB (13) (.898 OPS)
- LF Eli Serrano III – 3-for-5, 2B, 2 R, 1 K (.813 OPS)
- 2B Jesus Baez – 1-for-4, 1 BB (.745 OPS)
- C Chris Suero – 2-for-5, 1 R, 3 RBI (42), SB (21), CS (7) (.845 OPS)
The Brooklyn Cyclones stacked lineup pulled another big win out, this time coming alive in the eighth inning for four runs to take the win. The Cyclones had fourteen hits on the day and Eli Serrano III has come alive in June, slashing .313/.371/.469 and an absolute missile on an outfield assist to nail a runner at home.
- RHP Will Watson (2.03 ERA) 4 2/3 IP, 3 H, 3 BB, 5 K (49 of 87 pitches for strikes)
- RHP Saul Garcia (1.53 ERA) 2/3 IP, 1 H, 1 BB, 1 K
- RHP Hoss Brewer (0.00 ERA) 2/3 IP
Will Watson battled through some wildness to scatter four hits over four and two-third innings, walking three and striking out five. Chandler Marsh has allowed runs in his last two appearances after not allowing a run since May 3rd. Hoss Brewer allowed 0 runs and 0 hits in his first appearance for Brooklyn.
Low-A
St. Lucie Mets (34-31) 6, Palm Beach Cardinals (32-33) 7
- 2B Trey Snyder – 3-for-4, 1 R, 1 RBI (29), 1 BB (.728 OPS)
- LF Nick Roselli – 1-for-5, 1 R, 3 K (.651 OPS)
- SS Colin Houck – 2-for-5, 2B, 1 R, 2 RBI (36), 2 K (.812 OPS)
- C Daiverson Gutierrez – 0-for-4, 1 BB, 2 K (.701 OPS)
Trey Snyder has been heating up and operating as the spark plug for St. Lucie, raising his OPS .100 points in the last month. Colin Houck is working on a seven-game hit streak and has shown a much better ability to put the bat on the ball in 2025. Trace Willhoite went 1-for-5 with an RBI, his 38th of the season. The call up to Brooklyn for Willhoite could be coming any day as it doesn’t seem like he has much to prove in Low-A.
- RHP Frank Elissalt (3.66 ERA) 4 1/3 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 5 K (40 of 65 pitches for strikes)
St. Lucie pitching was not sharp against the Cardinals, walking seven batters and hitting another. Frank Elissalt had a bounce-back appearance after allowing four runs on June 12th.
Dominican Summer League
DSL Mets Blue (2-10) 2, DSL Giants Black (11-2) 3
DSL Mets Orange (8-4) 2, DSL Marlins (7-6) 2 – Elian Peña went 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases.
