Streak ends with Shutout

Portland's winning streak was snapped at five games following a 7-0 shutout at the hands of the Binghamton Mets Monday night. Portland managed only four hits by Mets pitchers Jose Diaz and Ken Chenard, though they were issued seven free passes and had lots of base runners in the game. Abe Alvarez started for Portland and allowed two runs on six hits over five innings of work, while the bullpen was again tagged for five runs over the final four innings. Third baseman David Wright, a top Mets prospect, and left fielder Angel Pagan both had three hits for Binghamton.
