Francisco Alvarez Homers in Return to Lineup; Cyclones Even Series
Now that's more like it..!
Jersey Shore promptly takes a 2-0 lead in the first inning on catcher Logan O'Hoppe's two-run home run.
Afterwhich, Brooklyn hurlers surrender just four scattered hits the rest of the way. After the first inning, Cyclones southpaw Cam Opp regroups, allowing just one more hit and one walk with three strikeouts through 5.2 innings pitched for the win. He faces game-high 22 batters, throwing 74 pitchers with 42 (56.7%) going for strikes. Relievers Josh Hejka and Allan Winans join together for 3.1 scoreless innings with five strikeouts.
Starting the game at first and finishing in left field, Jeremy Vasquez goes 2 for 3 with a home run in the second and a team-high three runs batted in. Making his return to the lineup, catcher Francisco Alvarez is 1 for 3 with a home run in the eighth, his fifth this season, and two runs batted in, and LT Struble goes 2 for 4 also with two runs batted in. Cody Bohanek, starting at third place in place of Brett Baty, gives Long Island three players with multiple hits.
With Friday's victory, the Cyclones knot the series at two.
But you know I can't let them off the hook so easily. Despite ten hits, the Surf Avenue Sluggers whiffed ten times and drew just three walks.
