Mets Daily Prospect Report, 8/10/23: A pair of pitching masterclasses

SCRANTON/WILIKES BARRE 9, SYRACUSE 5 (BOX)

Syracuse, for large swaths of this game, had a pretty stable lead. They scored in the first on an error, allowed the RailRiders to tie it in the bottom of the frame, and took control of the middle innings. They scored two in the fourth — one on a Michael Perez home run, and another on a Wyatt Young sacrifice fly — and one in the fifth on a Nick Meyer single to make it 4-1. That lead held until the seventh, when it all fell apart.

The RailRiders scored five in the seventh (including one on a throwing error by Ronny Mauricio throwing error from third base), and three in the eighth to complete the late-inning comeback.
