Hyannis Blows Another Lead to Lose 8-7
Hyannis led for eight innings in this game, only to let it slip away in the ninth.
Chatham catcher Phil Pohl led off the ninth with a single through the right side. With the leadoff man on, Mark Gormley induced a soft grounder to first baseman Ryan Cuneo. With Gormley running to cover first base, Cuneo hesitated in retreating to the bag. He instead opted to flip it to Gormley who reached the bag as Oropesa, the Chatham DH, was already safe. Runners now on first and second, Chatham second baseman Tom Belza dropped down a successful sacrifice bunt, moving both runners along. Short stop Tyler Rhamatulla followed suit with a deep double to the right centerfield gap scoring Pohl and Oropesa. Gormley would get the next two batters, but the damage was already done.
The Mets would threaten in the ninth inning, putting men on the corners with two outs. However former Met Russell Brewer would get Jackie Bradley Junior to line out softly to second base for his 8th save of the season.
Kevin Brandt started for Hyannis, scattering five hits over four plus innings of work. He avoided big damage in his outing, stranding six runners in his first four innings, including a bases loaded jam in the third. Dallas Gallant relieved him in the fifth, striking out two Anglers to keep the Mets up by 2 at the time. Gallant would throw another 2 and 2/3 innings giving up 4 runs total in his 3.2 innings of work.
Hyannis scored the bulk of their runs in the first inning, putting up four runs with the help of some sloppy play and wildness from Chatham pitcher Logan Verrett. After Verrett walked the bases loaded, Bradley Jr. plated two runners with a lined single up the middle. Newcomer Andrew Manning (UAB) would reach on a throwing error by the third basemen which resulted in another two runs coming across as the throw sailed into right field.
The Mets finished their scoring in the 6th inning after they put three more across with the help of the Anglers pitchers. There were three walks in the inning, including a bases loaded walk to Hyannis DH Andrew Manning.
Mark Gormley takes his fourth loss of the season. Jesse Hahn gets his first win of the summer for Chatham.
The Mets play at Y-D Saturday afternoon.
