Syracuse, NY – The Syracuse Mets pitching staff combined for a shutout, while Jihwan Bae and Ryan Clifford each homered in a 5-0 win over the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders on Saturday night at NBT Bank Stadium.
Syracuse (32-30) struck first in the bottom of the first inning. With one out, Bae launched a solo home run to right-center field, giving the Mets a 1-0 lead.
The Mets added on in the third. Christian Arroyo doubled before Clifford crushed his team-leading 14th homer of the season, a two-run shot to right field, extending the Syracuse advantage to 3-0.
In the sixth, Syracuse tacked on again. Yonny Hernández bunted, reached second on a throwing error, and came home when Cristian Pache ripped an RBI double to left field, making it 4-0.
The Mets tacked on their final run in the seventh. Matt Rudick singled and Nick Morabito doubled to put runners on second and third before a wild pitch scored Rudick, stretching the lead to 5-0.
On the mound, Nate Lavender started for Syracuse and struck out four batters over one and two-thirds scoreless innings. Jack Weisenburger followed and worked a season-high five and one-third shutout frames, allowing just three hits and one walk while striking out four. Jonathan Pintaro finished it off with two scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out one.
