Binghamton Mets Enjoying Akron Pitching

The Binghamton Mets are enjoying facing Akron RubberDucks pitching during their five-game road trip.  Last night Brian Burgamy hammered a pair of three-run home runs to power Binghamton to a 12-6 romp over Akron.  Burgamy ended up with seven runs batted in to pace the B-Mets attack.  The night before Darrell Ceciliani slammed a pair of home runs in a doubleheader sweep for the B-Mets.

Coming into the fifth and final game of the series tonight the B-Mets have won three straight and four of their last five for a 35-30 record.  The RubberDucks are 39-27 heading into tonight's action.

Greg Peavey gets the start for Binghamton.  He is 3-1 with the B-Mets this season and also made three starts with Triple-A Las Vegas earlier this season.  Akron counters with Joe Colon who is 5-3 with an ERA of 2.91.

Tonight's game is scheduled for a 7:05 start (air at 6:50 PM on News Radio 1290 WNBF).  The B-Mets return tomorrow night for a weekend series against the Erie SeaWolves.
