Cyclones Use Their Few Hits Wisely; Pitchers Shut Out Jersey Shore Over Final Eight

Game three at Coney Island featured right-hander Dominic Pipkin for the Blue Claws against Mike Vasil for the Cyclones.  

Jersey Shore bunched together three hits to take a 1-0 first-inning lead.  

After being held scoreless through the third, Nic Gaddis singled home the tying run in the fourth and runs batted in by Jose Peroza, and Shervyen Newton put the Cyclones ahead for good.  Otherwise,  Brooklyn was held to three hits all game.

Three Cyclone pitchers limited the Blue Claws to just a pair of hits over the final eight innings.  Mike Vasil allowed four hits and no walks with five strikeouts in six innings pitched for the win.  Right-hander Justin Courtney followed with two scoreless innings of one-hit ball, and Grant Hartwig closed out the ninth with two strikeouts for his sixth save.
