BINGHAMTON, N.Y. - The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (25-22, 60-54) defeated the Reading Fightin Phils, 8-2, on Thursday night at Mirabito Stadium, behind Jonathan Pintaro's dominant start and timely hitting offensively. Binghamton has won each of the first three games in this series and has won four-straight games overall.

Pintaro (2-2) earned the victory, after tossing a career-high seven innings and allowing just one run on two hits with three strikeouts. The 26-year-old retired 13-straight batters at one point. He allowed a leadoff walk in the third inning and did not allow another baserunner until there were two outs in the seventh inning.

Binghamton scored four runs in the first inning against Braeden Fausnaught (0-1). Matt Rudick hit a leadoff double and Rowdey Jordan followed with a walk. Jeremiah Jackson reached on an error that scored Rudick and made it 1-0. Later in the inning, Stanley Consuegra hit an RBI double that scored Jordan and an error on the same play scored Jackson and made it 3-0. Drake Osborn followed with an RBI single that put Binghamton up 4-0.

Reading (20-28, 51-65) got a run back in the second inning. Trevor Schwecke doubled and stole third base and eventually scored on Ethan Wilson's RBI fielder's choice that cut Binghamton's lead to 4-1.

Fausnaught settled in, before Binghamton exploded for three runs in the sixth. Alex Ramírez, Consuegra, and Osborn hit three-straight singles to start the frame, with Osborn's driving in Ramírez to make it 5-1. Later in the inning, Jaylen Palmer hit a two-run ground-rule double that put the Rumble Ponies up 7-1.

Reading scored again in the eighth on a solo home run from Ethan Wilson against Joshua Cornielly, which cut Binghamton's lead to 7-2. The Ponies got the run back in the bottom of the inning on a sacrifice fly from Mateo Gil that made it 8-2.

Junior Santos tossed a scoreless ninth inning to finish the game.
