Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders News Release


MOOSIC, PA -The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders were blanked 4-0 in game three of their six-game series with the Syracuse Mets Thursday. Manny Bañuelos became the second RailRider to register a quality start this season.

Bañuelos made his fourth start of the season for the RailRiders and allowed two runs (one earned) over six innings with five strikeouts. He joined Hayden Wesneski as the second RailRiders' starter to last six innings. Adonis Medina took the ball for the Mets and threw three shutout innings.

Estevan Florial walked in the third to extend his on-base streak to 13 straight games. During the streak, Florial has reached base 25 times in 55 plate appearances, which equates to a .455 on-base percentage. He later singled to pick up one of SWB's three hits for the game.

After Bañuelos retired the first 12 Mets he faced, Syracuse got on the board in the fifth on a double play ground out with the bases loaded. However, the damage was limited when Nick Meyer was caught attempting to steal home against the battery of Bañuelos and David Freitas to end the inning.

Syracuse scored one run in each of the next three consecutive innings to extend their lead to 4-0. Mark Vientos hit his third home run over the last two days in the eighth.

The RailRiders then made things interesting in the ninth. Three consecutive batters reached base with two outs to bring the tying run to the plate in the form of José Peraza, who was 10 for his last 24 at the plate. However, Peraza popped out to end the game.

Connor Grey (2-1) earned his second win for Syracuse. Grey pitched 5.2 scoreless frames in his longest outing of the season. Yoan López picked up his first save of the season for the Mets. Bañuelos (0-2) suffered the loss for SWB.

Scranton/Wilkes-Barre falls to 11-21 on the season. The series continues Friday evening with first pitch at 6:35 PM. It's First Responder Friday. 100 tickets will be given to our first responders each Friday. There's also a newly added Fireworks show. Tickets are available swbrailriders.com.
