The Rochester Red Wings bested the Syracuse Mets Sunday afternoon by a score of 7-2. With the win, the Wings split the series in Syracuse and finish with a record of 15-9 in 2022 against the Triple-A affiliate of the Mets.
LHP MacKenzie Gore got the start for the Wings in a rehab assignment. In 1.2 innings pitched, Gore allowed just 2 hits.
