Summary

Alex Mooney’s sixth inning go-ahead single led the Akron RubberDucks past the Binghamton Rumble Ponies 4-3 on Sunday night at Canal Park.

Turning Point

After tying the game in the fifth, the RubberDucks looked to pull away in the 2025 home finale. Jonah Advincula worked a two out walk before stealing second base and advancing to third on a wild pitch. Mooney followed with a line drive single into right to put Akron ahead 4-3.

Mound Presence

Yorman Gómez ran into some early trouble on Sunday. Binghamton got to the right-hander for two quick first inning runs before he settled in to keep the Rumble Ponies in check for most of the night. In total, Gómez tossed 4.1 innings allowing three runs while striking out six. Ross Carver followed with a scoreless 1.2 innings with two strikeouts. Tyler Thornton worked a scoreless seventh. Matt Jachec struck out three over two scoreless innings to pick up the save.

Duck Tales

Akron answered Binghamton’s first inning runs with one of its own. Velazquez grounded out to short to score Christian Knapczyk from third to cut the Binghamton lead to 2-1. After the Rumble Ponies added a run in the top of the fifth, the RubberDucks tied the game in the bottom half. Angel Genao singled with two outs before scoring all the way from first on Velazquez’s triple. Wuilfredo Antunez singled home Velazquez to tie the game 3-3.
