Ponies Five-Run Seventh Leads to Sweep in Richmond
May 30, 2019

Richmond, VA - The Rumble Ponies scored five in the seventh on their way to a 9-4 win over the Richmond Flying Squirrels (17-32) to complete the three-game sweep at The Diamond. The Ponies win their 30th game of the year (30-18) and are now a season-high 12 games over .500

Binghamton was down 3-2 heading into the top of the seventh. They then scored five runs on two Flying Squirrels errors, a wild pitch, along with an RBI double from Patrick Mazeika and an RBI single from Ali Sanchez. 

Mazeika replaced Barrett Barnes, who was ejected arguing balls and strikes in the third inning. He finished 3-3 with three runs with a run scored and an RBI. Sanchez had a multi-hit and multi-RBI game for a second straight night, as he finished 3 for 5 with 2 RBI. Jason Krizan also was 2-4 with two runs scored. 

Mickey Jannis started for the Ponies and ended up with the no-decision allowing 7 hits and 3 runs over 5 and a third innings, with one walk and seven strikeouts. Ryley Gilliam (2-0) got the win in relief. 

Before Barnes was ejected, he had an RBI single to plate the first Ponies run in the first and two batters later Will Toffey drove home a run with a single to put the Ponies up 2-0 in the first.
