The Binghamton Rumble Ponies dropped a 5-1 decision to the Erie SeaWolves on Saturday afternoon at NYSEG Stadium.  The SeaWolves took two out of three games in the series.  The Rumble Ponies stand 4-5 and are idle on Easter Sunday as the entire Eastern League has no scheduled games. David Thompson drove in the only Binghamton run with a sacrifice fly that plated Matt Oberste.

The Rumble Ponies begin a four-game series at NYSEG Stadium against the Portland Sea Dogs on Monday night at 6:35 (air at 6:20 on News Radio 1290 WNBF).  Mickey Jannis is the scheduled starter for Binghamton.
