Another Close Call at Coney Island
In yet another tightly contested affair, the Cyclones outlasted the Jersey Shore Blue Claws to seize a second straight victory and a 3-1 series lead.
Leading off the home third, catcher Jose Mena opened the scoring with a home run, his third this season. Center fielder Jaylen Palmer then singled home Brooklyn's second run in the fourth. The Cyclones were otherwise limited to five hits but once again made them count.
Brooklyn pitching took care of the rest.
Making his eighth start with Brooklyn, southpaw Nick Zwack yielded no runs on four hits and one walk with six strikeouts for the win. He faced 19 batters over five innings, throwing 94 pitches with 63 (67%) for strikes.
Making only his second appearance with Brooklyn, right-hander Nate Jones allowed one run (home run) on four hits and no walks in 2.2 innings pitched, and Sammy Tavarez notched a four-out save, his fifth this season.
