BINGHAMTON, NY - The Binghamton Rumble Ponies (11-25) fell to the Portland Sea Dogs 9-4 on Tuesday evening in the series opener at Mirabito Stadium.

Walker allowed five runs and six hits over 5.2 IP suffering his first loss of the year. He settled down though and at one point retired 10 Portland hitters in a row to keep the Ponies within striking distance. Binghamton scored runs in the third and fourth to make it a 5-2 game on RBI singles from Hayden Senger and Luis Carpio.

That would be the closest Binghamton would get though as Portland tacked on three in the ninth, capped off by a two-run triple from Triston Casas.
