Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (13-12)WORCESTER 9, SYRACUSE 2 (BOX)

Don’t walk 13 batters in a game if you want to have a chance of winning. Also, maybe have more than four hits. Just a couple thoughts.

This one was going swimmingly (for the most part) until the ninth. Then Tyler McLoughlin managed to cough up a run and two other baserunners without recording an out in the ninth. Both baserunners were allowed to score by Ryan Dollar, with the tying run scoring on a wild pitch. Three pitches later, Ryan Weingartner drove in the go-ahead run for the Cardinals. A walk and an error put the tying run in scoring position for the Mets in the bottom half with two outs, but Chase Meggers couldn’t get the job done. Rough way to lose. Elian Peña still looks quite good though!
