BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — The Portland Sea Dogs fell Tuesday night to the Binghamton Mets 7-3 in Eastern League play at NYSEG Stadium.

Portland concludes its sixgame roadtrip tonight.

Heiker Meneses had an inside-the-park home run in the second inning. It was Meneses’ second home run of the year and the first insidethe park home run for a Sea Dogs hitter since George Lombard’s grand slam on June 24, 2004 at Erie.

Drake Britton (1-2) took the loss and threw five innings for Portland, giving up three runs (all earned). He struck out seven, gave up six hits and walked one.

Binghamton righthander Logan Verrett (2-0) earned the win. He worked 6.2 innings on four hits and two runs. Jeff Walters pitched the final 1.1 innings for his third save.

The Sea Dogs got on the board in the top of the first inning. Tony Thomas’ RBI double scored Xander Bogaerts, and Meneses’ inside-the-park homer made it 2-0.

Binghamton took the lead in the bottom of the fourth. The Mets knocked in their first run in the home half of the fourth on a Cesar Puello RBI triple. Puello later scored on a Britton wild pitch. Francisco Pena hit an RBI double to put Binghamton in the lead, 3-2.

Binghamton busted it open in the home half of the eighth. Corey Vaughn put Binghamton up 4-2 with an RBI single. A Daniel Muno walk with the based loaded and a Pena sacrifice fly made the score 6-2, and Alonzo Harris’ RBI groundout put the Mets ahead 7-2.

Christian Vazquez drove in Portland’s third and final run of the game in the ninth.
