B-Max, aka Bruce Maxwell, carries a big stick, has a cool home run trot, and wears a huge chain, but we have to give him props, because in tonight’s slug fest against Scranton/WB, he batted 3-for-5 with 5 RBIs. The @swbrailriders had a breakout eight run sixth inning and won the game 17-11.
Infielder Dilson Herrera got four hits over a two-day period this week, and is leading the Syracuse Mets closer to a playoff spot as the season winds down.
Gregor Blanco (left) went 1-for-4 and knocked in a run in tonight’s 4-3 victory over Scranton Wilkes Barre. He received some dap from manager Tony DeFrancesco when he reached third base.
