R-Phils fall, 2-1, in 12 innings to Mets Lou Marson scores
Reading's only run despite a solid block by Mets catcher Salmon Manriquez.
Reading, PA -- A night after scoring 11 runs, the Reading Phillies offense had the chance to duplicate, and maybe exceed, that output. The R-Phils had more chances than a game of Monopoly. The Binghamton pitching staff continued to find a way to "pass go" and not land at their hotel with a loss.
Caleb Stewart led off the top of the 12th inning with a line homer to left off
Jason Kershner (1-1) to give the B-Mets a 2-1 win at FirstEnergy Stadium Tuesday night.
The Phillies (15-16) wasted a fine effort from starter Andrew Carpenter who allowed just five hits and one run in seven innings.
Binghamton (12-20) took a 1-0 lead in the sixth on a two-out homer by Nick Evans, his sixth. The Phillies quickly tied the game in the bottom of the sixth when
Lou Marson walked and scored on a double by Neil Sellers.
The Phillies had a runner on third and less than two outs five times in the game and could not score. Reading was 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position and stranded a season-high 16 runners. The Mets walked ten batters in the game, three of them intentional.
Former R-Phil Eude Brito (1-1) retired all four batters he faced to get the win.
Sellers was 3-for-5 for the Phillies and Jason Donald was 2-for-3 with three walks. Marson extended his hitting streak to seven games and his on-base streak to 20 games.
