The Portland Sea Dogs scored six runs in the fifth inning without a hit and went on to an 8-1 victory over the Binghamton Rumble Ponies in an Eastern League game Friday night in Binghamton, New York.

The big inning started with Caden Rose reaching safely on a third-strike wild pitch. After two walks loaded the bases, two run scored on an error as the Sea Dogs grabbed a 2-1 lead. Two more walks, a balk, a sacrifice fly by Mason White and another error resulted in three more runs.

Brooks Brannon added a two-run homer in the sixth inning — his 17th of the season.
