TRENTON, NJ - Thunder pitchers tossed a three-run game, but the offense was neutralized by Binghamton Mets starting pitcher Logan Verrett over 8.2 innings in a 3-1 loss Wednesday night.

Trenton trailed 2-0 after a two-run homer by Binghamton Mets right fielder Cesar Puello in the second inning, but tacked a run on the board with a double by Tyler Austin and an RBI single by J.R. Murphy in the 4th. That would be the lone run of the game for the Thunder, and Binghamton would tack-on the final run of the game and inning later with Puello's second home run of the game- third in two nights.

The Thunder bullpen continued to be dominant in relief of the starting pitchers. Tonight's starting pitcher, Nik Turley whose record drops to 3-2 on the season, allowed all three runs in five innings of work. Aaron Dott and Shaeffer Hall combined to throw four shutout innings between them with three strikeouts.
