Syracuse, NY - The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders were walked off by the Syracuse Mets 4-3 in ten innings.
The RailRiders scored the first run of the game in the fourth inning. Franchy Cordero lined a single to left field for their first hit of the game. An RBI double from Andres Chaparro gave them a 1-0 advantage.
In the sixth, Jake Lamb singled to reach and scored on a home run from Jesus Bastidas. It was his second consecutive game with a long ball.
Syracuse broke the shutout in the bottom half. Jose Peroza drew a walk to lead off and scored on Jaylen Palmer's double. AN RBI single from Lorenzo Cedrola made it 3-2 RailRiders.
Then, the Mets tied it up in the eighth. Peroza walked again and moved over on an error. Wyatt Young's run scoring single brought him home for a three apiece game.
The contest moved into extras, but SWB could not plate a run in the top of the tenth. Syracuse loaded the bases in the home half, but a five-man infield put up two outs. Brandon McIlwain worked a full-count walk to drive in the winning run. For the second straight night, the Mets walked off the RailRiders, this time 4-3.
Edgar Barclay pitched five and a third of two-run ball. He matched a career-high eight strikeouts. Matt Krook had a scoreless appearance. Josh Maciejewski gave up the tying run, albeit unearned, in the eighth. Michael Gomez (L, 2-6) did the same in the tenth.
