Binghamton scored first when Lucas Duda drove in Caleb Stewart with a double down the right field line in the second inning.

Stewart, who came off the disabled list earlier in the day after missing 58 games, reached on a leadoff walk by Fisher Cats’ starter Brandon Magee and scored from first on the play.

Shawn Bowman added to the B-Mets lead in the fourth with a double.

Stewart reached with one out after being hit by Magee and moved to third on D.J. Wabick’s 21st double of the season.

Bowman then drove in Stewart and Wabick with a double to right to give Binghamton (29-48) a 3-0 lead.

Adam Calderone added an insurance run for the visitors in the top of the ninth with an RBI single to center off Jim Ed Warden to yield the final of 5-3.

Brown was pinned with his eighth loss of the season as he went six innings, giving up four runs on five hits.
