Binghamton tied the game on an Edgardo Fermin sacrifice fly to center to score Luis Carpio. One inning later, Quinn Brodey smacked a leadoff double and came around to score on a David Thompson sac fly. Harford pulled even in the seventh on a wild pitch that allowed Scott Burcham to score from second. Mylz Jones gave the Yard Goats the lead with a solo home run to deep left in the eighth. Luc Rennie received a no-decision as he went seven innings and gave up two runs on three hits.

STRONG STARTING PITCHING: Over the last five games, each Rumble Pony starter has thrown at least five innings, including a complete game by Mickey Jannis and seven-inning performances by Zach Lee and Luc Rennie. Jannis and David Peterson each struck out 10.

JANNIS' COMPLETE GAME: RHP Mickey Jannis tossed the second complete game of his career against Portland on August 28. He struck out 10 and allowed two runs on four hits with two walks. Over his last four starts, Jannis has allowed just three earned runs and struck out 37 in 30 innings.

HAGGERTY GETS THE CALL: Sam Haggerty was promoted to the Major Leagues yesterday. He is the third Rumble Pony this season to be called up to the Majors this season, joining pitchers Stephen Nogosek and Chris Mazza.

PONIES AND GOATS IN CLOSE GAMES: After last night's 3-2 win for Hartford, nine of the 12 games the two teams have played this season have been decided by three runs or fewer. All four of the Ponies wins have been decided by either one or two runs.
