The Binghamton Mets picked up a win at NYSEG Stadium, knocking off the Akron RubberDucks, 9-4. Starting pitcher Don Dillon played a key role in the triumph.

He has now successfully converted 1 of 1 save opportunities.

In the bottom of the third, Rob Elliott delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and runners on 2nd and 3rd, the Binghamton right fielder hit a run-scoring single, putting the Mets in front, 9-4.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Dillon. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."

The third-place Mets have won 5 consecutive games.
