Brooklyn Cyclones: Jaison Vilera Dominating New York-Penn League

From the desk of:  THE CONEY ISLAND NINE

Jaison Vilera Extends Scoreless Innings Streak

Brooklyn Cyclones: Behold Coney Island's Newest Freak.

Making his eighth start this past Sunday, Brooklyn's 21-year old Jaison Vilera tosses seven shutout innings against West Virginia to extend his scoreless streak to 28.2 innings pitched without surrendering a run.  He allows the Black Bears just two hits, two walks, and fans eight en route to his league leading fifth victory of the season against just one loss. 

Vilera last surrenders a run against Aberdeen back on June 5, but nothing since.  His stellar 0.78 ERA leads the league by nearly a full point.  He also leads the league in Average Against; is tied with team mate Billy Oxford for the league lead in wins; and is number two in WHiP with just 23 hits and 15 walks allowed through 46 innings pitched.

Promoted from the GCL Mets, Jaison has now appeared in 32 games as a pro.  He owns a 13-3 overall record with a 1.47 ERA and 0.95 WHiP.  Thus far opponents are batting just .184 against him.  Vilera has allowed 104 hits and struck out 156 batters through 165 innings pitched over his last last two seasons, to date.
