Oliver Dunn gave the Patriots their third run on an RBI-double in the fourth, giving Somerset a 3-0 lead.

Binghamton chipped away with one run in each of the fourth, sixth and ninth innings, but Lockridge's second RBI-single in the fifth inning proved to be the decisive blow for the Patriots.

Yankees No. 12 prospect Yoendrys Gomez made his Double-A debut for Somerset as the game's starter, going 3.1 innings and allowing one run on three hits, three walks and three strikeouts.

He was replaced by Shawn Semple in his first Double-A appearance this season. Semple earned the win, pitching 1.2 perfect innings in relief of Gomez.

The quartet of Steven Jennings, Aaron McGarity, Tanner Myatt and Carson Coleman kept the Rumble Ponies in their stable to polish off the Patriots' first win of the series.

Coleman earned his 13th save with Somerset and his 17th overall this season by striking out New York Mets No. 6 prospect Ronny Mauricio to end the game with the tying run at first base.
