Sonny Marold picked up his 16th save of the season. The loss makes Lincoln 40-18.

With Binghamton leading 1-0 in the bottom of the first, Grant batted against Lincoln pitcher Dominic Curry. Grant hit a fastball to right for a 3-run home run. His 6th home run of the season put the Rumble Ponies on top, 4-0.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Grant told the Binghamton News.
