Cyclones Sweep Valley Cats 3-0
I - BRK 2; TRI 1
II - BRK 5; TRI 3
III - BRK 5; TRI 0
Four Cyclones pitchers each do a little, and together accomplish a lot. Nathan Jones makes the start in game three at MCU Park, allowing just two hits and two walks with two strikeouts through three scoreless innings. Corey Gaconi takes care of the next three innings, yielding no runs on two hits with five strikeouts. Hunter Parsons enters the game in the seventh and contributes two more scoreless innings of one-hit ball with a pair of strikeouts. And finally Josh Hejka pitches a scoreless ninth completing the combined effort shutout. Together the four man line reads no runs on five hits and just two walks with ten strikeouts. Brooklyn scores single runs in the first, second, and fourth, and two more in the six for good measure. Catcher Jose Mena is big man on campus going 3 for 4 with a double, home run, and three RBI. Luke Ritter drives in his 25th run of the season, and designated hitter Gavin Garay drives in his eighth.
AND LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR ... STATEN ISLAND IS THERE
Yankees sweep Renegades 3-0
I - SIY 4; HVR 3
II - SIY 4; HVR 1
III - SIY 4; HVR 3
Richmond County has been a tremendous help of late, likewise completing a three game sweep over the first place Hudson Valley Renegades. That ties the Yankees with Aberdeen at one game out of first place. Brooklyn meanwhile is now within one-half game of first place, but hold a half-game lead in the wild card race over Aberdeen and Staten Island. And the Batavia Muckdogs have suddenly arrived on the scene, one full game behind the Cyclones.
