BOX SCORE | SWB 7, SYR 2

MOOSIC, PA (April 7, 2024) –The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders beat the Syracuse Mets 7-2 on a beautiful Sunday at PNC Field. Caleb Durbin excelled with a pair of doubles, walks and steals and four runs batted in.

The RailRiders took a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the fourth inning. Luis Torrens led off with a double and Kevin Smith followed with a bunt single. A walk issued to Luis González loaded the bases. A two-run single from Jordan Groshans and a sacrifice fly from Caleb Durbin put the home team ahead.

Syracuse battled back in the next frame. Back-to-back homers from Ben Gamel and Luke Ritter made it a one-run ballgame.

SWB added an insurance run in the seventh. Durbin doubled and quickly stole third. He raced across the plate on a wild pitch for a 4-2 advantage.

The home team ran away with it thanks to a bases clearing double from Durbin. After Smith and Jeter Downs were hit by pitches, Groshans walked to load the bases. Durbin rocketed a line drive down the left field line making it 7-2.

Cody Poteet got the start pitching 4.1 innings allowing two runs on two hits. He struck out seven. Phil Bickford (W, 1-0) got out of the fifth scoreless. Alex Mauricio impressed with two and a third clean frames. Duane Underwood Jr (S, 1) slammed the door shut on the Mets.

The RailRiders head to Norfolk for a series against the Triple-A Baltimore Orioles affiliate. The series will begin Tuesday with lefty Edgar Barclay on the bump.
