The Herd drop both games of their Friday doubleheader against the Syracuse Mets. Eric Lauer pitched well for the Bisons in Game 1, giving up just two runs on five hits through five innings pitched, but the offense couldn’t get going and the Bisons lost game one 3-0.
Game 2 featured a 5th inning rally for the Herd where they scored four runs to cut the Syracuse lead to 6-4 at the time, but the Mets rebounded and won the game 11-5. Christian Bethancourt and Rainer Nunez homered for the Herd while Riley Tirotta smashed an RBI double and Joey Loperfido added a sacrifice fly.
