Binghamton won the game in part because of Mike Sperring. The left fielder ripped a solo home run in the top of the first inning to put the Mets ahead, 1-0. For the game, Sperring had 1 double and 1 home run in 2 at-bats.

"We can't expect to win," said Richmond manager Mike Sarbaugh, "when we play like that."
