Michael Devaney allowed one hit over six shutout innings for the Binghamton Mets, who defeated the Trenton Thunder 3-1 at Waterfront Park Monday. The win is Binghamton's fourth straight.

The B-Mets (41-51) got on the board in the third. After Rafael Arroyo started the frame with a double and Corey Coles bunted for a hit, Jeff Marquez walked Miguel Negron to load the bases with no outs. Mark Kiger and Mike Carp followed with sacrifice flies, scoring Arroyo and Coles, respectively, for a 2-0 B-Mets lead.

Binghamton tacked on another against Marquez (9-6) in the fifth. Carp started the rally with a two-out single before Brett Harper followed suit. Caleb Stewart then lined a base hit to center, bringing in Carp with the B-Mets' third run.

Devaney (4-7) didn't allow a hit until P.J. Pilittere's leadoff single in the sixth. He was followed by Salvador Aguilar who gave up two-out singles to Gabe Lopez and Colin Curtis in the eighth before Carlos Muñiz allowed a base hit to Alberto Gonzalez, scoring Lopez with Trenton's only run. However, Muñiz would hold on for his 19th save in 22 chances.
