The Mets' minor league system had a busy Sunday, with doubleheaders across multiple levels. While the Triple-A Syracuse Mets struggled, the Double-A Binghamton Rumble Ponies and High-A Brooklyn Cyclones split their doubleheaders, and the Single-A St. Lucie Mets emerged victorious. The day's performances were defined by the word 'average', with mixed results across the board. The Mets' top prospect, Jonah Tong, had a rough outing for Syracuse, raising his ERA to 5.68. A.J. Ewing, however, continued his hot streak, going 2-for-5 with a triple and two walks. In Double-A, the Rumble Ponies' pitching staff performed well, with Jonathan Santucci striking out eight batters in 5.1 innings. The offense struggled, but A.J. Ewing and Marco Vargas provided highlights. The High-A Cyclones' pitching staff also performed well, with Channing Austin leading the way with a 1.62 ERA. However, the offense struggled in the second game of their doubleheader, falling apart after a strong first game. The Single-A St. Lucie Mets had a strong day, with three home runs and three doubles, and a strong pitching performance from Nicolas Carreno and Emilio Obispo. Overall, the Mets' minor league system had a mixed day, with some bright spots and some areas for improvement. The team will look to build on the strong performances and improve on the areas that need work as the season progresses.
