BOX SCORE

BOWIE, M.D. — The Bowie Baysox, the Double-A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, saw their four-game winning streak snapped by the Binghamton Rumble Ponies, Double-A affiliate of the New York Mets, by a 7-2 final on Friday night at Prince George’s Stadium.

Bowie (28-26) found the offense hard to come by on Friday. The only runs came on a sixth-inning two-run home run off the bat of Samuel Basallo. A ball that traveled an estimated 444 feet made it a 3-2 Binghamton lead at the time. Friday’s long ball was the tenth launched by Basallo this season – good for fourth-most in the Eastern League. The 19-year-old has also homered in back-to-back games.

The Baysox were held to just four additional hits on Friday apart from the Basallo long ball. Rumble Ponies’ right-handed starter Joander Suarez (W, 3-3) struck out 10 Baysox batters through six and two-third innings. Bowie threatened to tie the game in the bottom of the seventh following a one-out double by Silas Ardoin, but were unable to push him home.

Bowie fell behind early on Friday, as Baysox right-handed starter Trace Bright struck out four through two scoreless frames, before allowing a solo home run to Binghamton’s Jaylen Palmer to lead off the third. Bright (L, 0-5) allowed two baserunners to lead off the fifth before being lifted from the game. The Rumble Ponies went on to plate two in the fifth to take a commanding 3-0 lead. Binghamton would reassert their edge in the eighth by bringing across three more runs on a pair of doubles, before Palmer blasted his second home run of the game in the top of the ninth.

The loss snaps a season-high winning streak for the Baysox, who still sit three and a half games back, occupying fourth place in the six-team Southwest division, with 14 games remaining for Bowie in the first half.

The Baysox continue their six-game home stand against the Rumle Ponies Saturday night at 6:35 pm. RHP Kyle Brnovich (4-1, 3.27) will get the start for Bowie.
