BINGHAMTON, N.Y. - The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (4-1, 49-23) came-from-behind for the fourth-straight game and left fielder Nick Morabito hit a walk-off single to beat the Portland Sea Dogs, 3-2, in 11 innings at Mirabito Stadium on Saturday. Binghamton won its fourth-straight come-from-behind game and has won the series.

Binghamton trailed 2-1 in the bottom of the 11th inning. Shortstop William Lugo was the automatic runner on second base and advanced to third base on a sacrifice bunt from second baseman Wyatt Young. Designated hitter Jett Williams followed with a walk and stole second base.

With the potential-tying run on third base and the possible-winning run on second base, center fielder Carson Benge hit a game-tying RBI single that made it 2-2 against right-hander Yovanny Cruz (0-2). It marked Benge's first RBI at the Double-A level. With Williams on third base, Morabito hit a walk-off single to right field and Binghamton won 3-2. It marked Binghamton's sixth walk-off win this season and second win in extra innings.
