The Norfolk Tides (NYM-AAA) come to Syracuse once a season and I try to get to at least one of those games so I can see how last year's B-Mets are doing up a level. This year, the Tides' visit coincides with a B-Mets homestand, and since I haven't been to a B-Mets' game in a few weeks it presented a dilema. The weather reporters said rain in Binghamton, and Thursday's game in Syracuse had been postponed because of a power outage at or near the ballpark, which meant a doubleheader Friday. Syracuse, it is.
When they flashed Chase Lambin's stats on the scoreboard, I thought it would be nice if he could hit his first AAA homerun tonight. The first pitch he saw he put over the right field fence. Yay! His first AAA homer, and I got to see it. Next at bat, first pitch was a ball, second pitch over the right field fence. Yay! a multi-homer game for Chase. Third at bat, he fouled off the first pitch into the third base stands, second pitch, yup, over the right field fence. Yay!!!!! Three at bats, three home runs.
He didn't fare quite so well in the second 7-inning game, only 2-for-4 with a run and an RBI.
