Four Cyclones Pitchers Join Together to Hurl a Gem
Coney Island makes up for their Opening Day loss with a dominating performance in game two.
Starting with Oscar Rojas, four Cyclones pitchers join together in limiting the Hudson Valley Renegades to just five hits over nine scoreless innings. Rojas yields three hits in four innings; Allan Winans earns the win with two scoreless innings, followed by another two scoreless frames pitched by Bryan Metoyer, and Bryce Montes de Oca allows a hit and strikes out one in a scoreless ninth to preserve the shutout.
Hudson Valley goes 0 for 9 with runners in scoring position, whereas the Cyclones are 8 for 19 while leaving an equal seven runners on base. Brooklyn hitters erupt for 14 runs on 14 hits, with seven going for extra bases. Three runs in the third, five in the sixth, and six more runs in the seventh, and that's all she wrote.
Brett Baty leads the charge going 4 for 5 with a double, stolen base, and four runs batted in. Center fielder Jake Mangum and second baseman Anthony Walters each drive in two runs apiece. Joe Genord is 3 for 5 with a double, triple, and three runs scored.
