RTTS (Minors - Seson 1) - Game #3 Stuck
Posted on March 9, 2011 at 10:40 PM.
HAPPEL SPARKS COME FROM BEHIND WIN

Binghamton, NY - Just when it looked like the Fisher Cats had taken the wind out of Binghamton's sail, the Mets respond in a big way in the seventh, pulling out a 7-2 come-from-behind victory in front of more than 6,500 fans at The Porch. It was a pitcher's duel until the 7th inning. That's when Corona hit a two-run home run to give New Hampshire the lead. But Mets outfielder Brian Happel smacked a single to right to lead off the bottom half of the inning, and the offense exploded from there. Binghamton batted around, and when all was said and done, the Mets had a 7-2 lead.


VIDEO HIGHLIGHTS: Happel knocks in the 7th and final run of a big 7th inning

It was easily the best game of Happel's young career with the Mets. He picked up 3 hits in 4 at bats, scored a run and knocked in another run. He raised his average from .200 all the way up to .357. "It felt great to have such a good game," said Happel afterwards, "But, it is just one game. Tomorrow, I could go oh for five with five strikeouts. That's baseball. I just need to try and be consistent and get another hit the next game I play in."


Happel may be finding his stroke early, picking up the first 3-hit game of his professional career

Williamson was solid on the hill for Binghamton, giving up just 2 earned runs in 6.2 innings of work. Frank McKinney has also been good in relief. He hasn't given up a run yet and already has two wins. "It feels good to get the first win at home, in front of our fans," said manager John Griffey, "Hopefully we can do it again and keep this nice streak going." The Mets have now won five games in a row.
