LAST GAME RECAP: In a back-and-forth extra-inning game, the Rumble Ponies prevailed in 11 innings over the Sea Dogs, 7-6. Oliver Pascual delivered the game-winning hit, a single to plate Jhoan Urena. Binghamton needed a ninth-inning tally to force extras - they scored in six different innings. All nine Rumble Ponies starters had a hit.

BINGHAMTON STARTER: RHP Franklyn Kilome makes his 26th Eastern League start of the season and seventh as a member of the Rumble Ponies. The 23-year-old was ejected in his last start after tossing just 2.1 innings at Hartford. Kilome makes his third NYSEG Stadium start, searching for his first win with Binghamton. All three of his starts against Portland came with Reading.

ITS ALL IN THE HITS: Binghamton racked up 19 hits on Saturday, the most since a 20-hit performance against Portland on July 16. The Rumble Ponies season-high stands at 21 hits, recorded on May 17 at New Hampshire.

GAME-WINNING GUYS: Oliver Pascual's 11th-inning single was Binghamton first walk-off hit since Joey Terdoslavich's game-winning single in game one of a doubleheader on August 4 against Portland.

TIMING IS EVERYTHING: Since a 3-for-4 performance in his first Double-A game on May 20, Oliver Pascual remained hitless with Binghamton (0-for-his-last-13) until his walk-off hit.

MULTI-HIT MEN: Binghamton had five players with multi-hit performances in Saturday's win. All five hit consecutively in the Rumble Ponies lineup (two through six) and went 15-for-29 with 4 RBI.

PARTY OF FIVE: Jhoan Urena finished 5-for-6, the Ponies second five-hit game of the season (Joey Terdoslavich, 7/25 @ BOW). It marks the eighth time this year a Binghamton batter has had at least four hits and the first since Patrick Biondi on 7/26 at Altoona.

GLOVE GAFFES: Binghamton has made an error in four straight games for the first time since August 4 - 7. The Ponies have made seven errors during the four-game span.

CLOSE ENCOUNTERS: Since Binghamton's 16-2 win over Portland on July 16, the team's have played in five straight games decided by three or fewer runs. Four games have needed extra innings, with two decided in the 11th inning.

SEA-ING PORTLAND: Binghamton's win guarantees a season series victory against Portland. The Rumble Ponies have won 12 of the 21 meetings.

UP NEXT: The Rumble Ponies and Sea Dogs conclude the 2018 regular season on Monday afternoon. RHP Justin Dunn gets the ball in the finale against LHP Matt Kent. First pitch at NYSEG Stadium is scheduled for 1:05 PM.
