Painted Post NY- It was a wind swept playing field that greeted Corning and Binghamton to launch the 2012 season, perhaps an omen for the Hawks and Patriots. It turned out to be a game of of ties, lead changes, highlighted by rallies, and sparkling defensive plays. Binghamton got on the board first and Corning answered as each scored in the first.Both scored four runs in the second making it 5-5.The Hawks took a 6-5 lead after retiring the side in the third.Binghamton added three runs in the fourth to take an 8-5 lead and proceeded to hold the hosts in check til the sixth inning.Corning sent nine batters to the plate, scoring five runs on three hits, making it 11-8. After a seventh inning lead off double by Matt Eggleston,Corning relief pitcher Pat Fero got the next batter to pop to third. The next batter walked, however, the Hawks defense turned a game ending double play to end the game giving Corning it's first win of the season.Hawks Coach John Knapp comments on the win.
