Syracuse, NY – The Syracuse Mets fell to the Indianapolis Indians, 12-9, in a rain-shortened, eight-inning game, on Sunday afternoon at NBT Bank Stadium. Jared Young hit two home runs in the loss for the Mets.
After the Syracuse pitching staff tossed 20 consecutive scoreless innings over the last three nights, Indianapolis (73-52, 31-20) wasted no time to snap that stretch in the top of the first inning. The first two hitters of the game, Alika Williams and Nick Yorke, hit doubles to put the Indians in front, 1-0. Next, an RBI single by Rafael Flores and a two-run homer by Sammy Siani put Indy on top, 4-0.
Syracuse (64-62, 33-18) responded with one run in the bottom of the first. With two outs, Jared Young doubled, and Pablo Reyes ripped an RBI single, making it a 4-1 game.
Indianapolis didn’t slow down in the second. Tsung-Che Cheng singled, Mike Jarvis walked, and Williams hit a three-run homer to stretch the lead to 7-1. Later in the inning, Flores hit a sacrifice fly, giving the Indians an 8-1 advantage.
Syracuse once again cut back into the lead, plating three runs in the second. After Joey Meneses walked and Luis De Los Santos singled, Matt O’Neill crushed a three-run home run, pulling the Mets closer, 8-4.
Indy added two more runs in the fourth with an RBI groundout by Nick Solak and an RBI single from Siani, extending their lead to 10-4.
The Mets remained pesky, adding a run in the bottom of the fourth on a Joey Meneses solo home run, making it 10-5. That home run was Meneses's third of the week.
In the fifth, Cheng singled, moved to second on a Mike Jarvis single, stole third, and came home to score on a throwing error by O’Neill, giving the Indians an 11-5 lead.
Indianapolis added one more run in the seventh on a sacrifice fly by Yorke, taking a 12-5 advantage.
Trailing by seven, Syracuse chipped away. In the bottom of the seventh, a pair of solo home runs by Jared Young and Luke Ritter made it 12-7.
In the eighth, the Mets inched closer when Jett Williams walked, stole second base, took third on an error, and scored on a wild pitch, tightening the game to 12-8. Then with two outs, another solo homer by Young pulled the Mets within three, 12-9.
After rain poured down at the beginning of the ninth inning, the game was delayed for 30 minutes and eventually called as a completed game with Indianapolis winning, 12-9.
Syracuse begins a six-game series with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders on Tuesday night. First pitch scheduled for 6:35 p.m.
