Mets Handle Altoona, Snag 4-2 Win
The 3-RBI night of left fielder Brian Troop helped the Binghamton Mets triumph, 4-2, over the Altoona Curve. Tim Cartmell, the winning pitcher, improved to 3-2. He pitched 7.2 innings, giving up 6 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 2. Picking up his 13th save was 25-year old left-handed pitcher Jason Bingham.

There was more than one reason the Mets beat the Curve, but Troop's big at-bat in the bottom of the second was an important factor. He staked his team to a 1-0 lead when he hit a run-scoring single.

"A great team win and something real positive we can build on," said Troop after the game.

The Mets sit in third place in the Northern Division with a record of 57-59.
