Hunter Parson Closes What Jose Chacin Starts; Cyclones Play With Lead Throughout

Staked to a 3-0 lead, right-hander Jose Chacin limits the Blue Claws to one run through the first five innings.  Jersey Shore finally catches up to Chacin with consecutive extra-base hits in the sixth resulting in two runs.  But it's too little too late for the Blue Claws, as Brooklyn rallies for another three runs back in the home fifth en route to a 7-5 victory.

Making his fourth start for Brooklyn, Jose Chacin faces 24 batters, throwing 91 pitches with 62 (68.1%) going for strikes.  Chacin allows three runs on five hits and one walk with seven strikeouts in earning his third win.  In relief of Chacin, Nolan Clenney yields a run on three hits over two innings, but Hunter Parsons tosses a scoreless ninth to close out the win and earn his second save.

Designated hitter Zack Ashford is the big man on campus, going 2 for 4 with a double and two runs batted in, and third baseman Jose Peroza also goes 2 for 4 with a double and one run batted in.  Catcher
Nic GaddisRaul Beracierta, and Luke Ritter also drive in runs for Brooklyn.

Brooklyn wielded double-digit hits, drew six walks, and fanned only six times, and regulars Francisco Alvarez and Cody Bohanek were given the night off.
