Recap


            The Cyclones salvaged a win from their 3-game series with Staten Island Friday night behind some strong pitching and a Jeff Diehl blast. Mets 3B prospect David Thompson would reach and score in both the 2nd and 4th innings, and then the newest Brooklyn player Hengelbert Rojas doubled and scored in the 5th, which gave the Cyclones a 4-0 lead. Kevin Canelon came out firing strikes for the Cyclones, needing just 43 pitches through the first 4 innings, but then the Yankees started smacking him around in the 5th, and he had to be removed one out shy of qualifying for the win. Criag Missigman came into the 4-3 game with 2 runners on base, but induced a groundout from Jhalan Jackson to escape the jam. Missigman would work another scoreless frame in the 6th, and then Corey Taylor, P.J. Conlon, and Alex Palsha combined to keep Staten Island scoreless over the final 3 frames.
            Looking ahead, the Cyclones head home to face Vermont Saturday evening at 6:00 PM, with Tyler Badamo scheduled to pitch in the opener for Brooklyn.



Scoring Highlights


            David Thompson led off the 2nd inning with a single through the right side, stole 2B, went to 3B on a single to RF from Zach Mathieu, and then scored as Mathieu was being thrown out at 2B.



            After Thompson walked in the 4th, Jeff Diehl followed with 2R blast to CF.


            Hengelbert Rojas picked up his first NYPL hit with a double to LF leading off the 5th. Manuel Hilario followed with an RBI single to give Brooklyn a 4-0 lead.




Bonus Defense


            Vinny Siena committed an error in this game, and looked awkward on a couple of other plays.



            Alfredo Reyes and David Thompson each made a play on the run during this game.
