Jett Williams stole his first Triple-A base of the 2025 season, but Brandon Sproat struggled in his first relief appearance in a Syracuse loss, A.J. Ewing stole three bases in a Binghamton win, Brooklyn struggled to hit in their loss and John Bay hit another home run in a St. Lucie victory.
Triple-A
Syracuse Mets (64-62) 9, Indianapolis Indians (73-52) 12

- RHP Brandon Sproat (4.50 ERA) 3 2/3 IP, 7 H, 7 R (5 ER), 2 BB, 4 K, 1 HR allowed (50 of 77 pitches for strikes)
Brandon Sproat had a rough outing, allowing four runs in his first inning of work behind two walks, a wild pitch and an error. Sproat was extremely hittable and susceptible to the stolen base, with four of the five Indians stolen bases occurring while he was on the mound.
Double-A
Binghamton Rumble Ponies (76-39) 12, Portland Sea Dogs (56-58) 10
BOX SCORE
- CF A.J. Ewing – 3-for-5, 2B, 3 R, 3 SB (7), 1 BB, 2 K (.895 OPS)
- DH Nick Morabito – 1-for-5, 1 R, SB (41), CS (9), 1 BB, 2 K (.758 OPS)
- 1B Jacob Reimer – 3-for-5, 2 R, HR (8), 3 RBI (28) (.857 OPS)
- C Chris Suero – 2-for-4, 1 R, 1 RBI (14), 1 BB (.714 OPS)
- DH Kevin Parada – 2-for-4, 2 R, HR (10), 1 RBI (45), 1 BB (.760 OPS)
A.J. Ewing ran wild on the Sea Dogs, notching three stolen bases and scoring three runs. Ewing is proving to be the catalyst for the Binghamton offense. Every Rumble Pony had a hit, and only Nick Lorusso didn’t score a run.
What a WILD win for the @RumblePoniesBB!
Jacob Reimer and Kevin Parada each homered in the top of the 8th inning to tie and give the Rumble Ponies the lead in a 12-10 victory! pic.twitter.com/UqcJEjrwrI

- LHP Felipe De La Cruz (3.98 ERA) 3 IP, 1 H, 1 ER, 5 K, 1 HR allowed
- RHP Ryan Lambert (2.02 ERA) 1 IP, 2 K
Ryan Lambert is on a heater in August, striking out 11 batters while only allowing three hits. Felipe De La Cruz has had an up-and-down season but his appearance on Sunday showed more of his promising stuff with solid results and he has walked zero batters in August with 11 strikeouts over seven and two-third innings.
High-A
Brooklyn Cyclones (68-52) 1, Aberdeen IronBirds (50-68) 3
BOX SCORE
- 3B Boston Baro – 0-for-3 (.595 OPS)
- CF Eli Serrano III – 1-for-4, 2B, 1 R (.690 OPS)
- C Ronald Hernandez – 1-for-3, 1 RBI (51), 1 K (.634 OPS)
- 1B Trace Willhoite – 1-for-4, 2B, 3 K (.994 OPS)
Brooklyn had four hits, with three going for extra-bases. Ronald Hernandez has had a hit in six of his last nine games. After having his strongest month as a professional in July, Boston Baro has slumped, slashing .173/.214/.212 in August with a 3/12 BB/K ratio in addition to his 20th error on the season.
Ronnie puts us in front!!!
RBI bloop from Hernandez put us on the board first in the series finale. Still, Aberdeen has since pulled even.

- RHP Hoss Brewer (2.35 ERA) 1 IP, 1 H, 1 unearned run, 1 BB, 1 K
In a bullpen game, the Cyclones sent out seven pitchers who only allowed 1 earned run, but allowed two unearned runs. Juan Arnaud has struggled since his promotion, sporting a 13.50 ERA having walked five batters in four innings.
Low-A
St. Lucie Mets (71-48) 8, Palm Beach Cardinals (57-61) 1
BOX SCORE
- 2B Mitch Voit 1-for-4, 2B, 1 R, 1 RBI (4), 2 K (.498 OPS)
- LF John Bay – 1-for-3, 1 R, HR (3), 3 RBI (19), 2 K (1.057 OPS)
- C Daiverson Gutierrez – 1-for-3, 2B, 1 RBI (38), 2 BB, CS (4) (.682 OPS)
- 1B Randy Guzman – 2-for-5, 3 RBI (17), CS (2), 1 K (.944 OPS)
- SS Antonio Jimenez – 2-for-4, 2 R, 1 BB (.605 OPS)
Mitch Voit has a lot of swing-and-miss in his game, and its not a sustainable approach for success. Daiverson Gutierrez has put together a nice first full-season for St. Lucie, showing some of the power that made him a highly-touted IFA but is rough on the defensive end.
- RHP Joel Lara (0.87 ERA) 4 IP, 1 BB, 4 K (28 of 52 pitches for strikes)
Joel Lara was a bit on the wild side, but managed to only walk one batter while striking out four in his four innings of work. While Lara has been promising this season, he has walked almost a batter an inning, but being a pitcher in full-season ball at 18 years old is nothing to scoff at.
