Mets lose marathon game in Harwich
Harwich Ma
The Mets lost 6-5 in 15 innings to the Harwich Mariners in a game that featured Mets outfielder Johnny Ruettiger (ASU) coming in to pitch in extra innings.
Kevin Brandt (East Carolina) pitched five innings of one run ball for Hyannis before being pulled in the 6th inning with runners on the corners in favor of Kevin Moran (Boston College). A controversial run scored when Moran was charged with a balk on an attempted pickoff. The run tied the score a 2-2, where it stayed until the Mets tacked on two more in the 7th.
With one out and runners at 2nd and 3rd in the top of the 7th, Dan Burkhart (Ohio State) lined a two rbi single to put the Mets up 4-2. The lead held until the ninth when reliever Dallas Gallant (Sam Houston) gave up a two out, two rbi double to tie the game at 4.
Both teams remained scoreless in extra innings until the 14th, despite a bases loaded, no out jam for the Mets in the bottom of the 13th. A single and two errors loaded the bases before Chris Haney (Dallas Baptist) was able to induce a force out at home, a pop out, and a ground ball to get out of the inning.
The Mets pulled ahead in the top of the 14th on a two out single by Johnny Ruettiiger. Ruettiiger, an outfielder for the Mets, was then called upon to pitch the bottom of the 14th. He surrendered one run on a two out double, sending the game to the 15th. The game ended in the bottom of the 15th inning when Jeff Vigurs (Bryant) blooped a two out walk off single to center field.
The Mets travel to Chatham tommorow to take on the Anglers at 7:00.
