BROOKLYN, N.Y. (September 6, 2023) - For the second consecutive night, the Brooklyn Cyclones took down the Wilmington Blue Rocks at Maimonides Park. It’s the second time in three games where Brooklyn has plated at least seven runs, as Chris Newell’s squad took down Wilmington, 7-1.
RF Stanley Consuegra clobbered his 21st home run of the 2023 season, while 2B D’Andre Smith notched two runs of his own.
LHP Felipe De La Cruz was effective in his third overall Brooklyn outing and Maimonides Park debut. The southpaw logged five innings of one-run ball, while striking out four and walking just one.
Wilmington opened the scoring in the third inning on De La Cruz’s lone mistake of the day - a solo home run off the bat of CF Andrew Pinckney. From there, the Wilmington bats were silenced the rest of the way - mustering only six hits in total.
Brooklyn immediately got the run back in the third on an RBI groundout from 1B Ryan Clifford. That started a stretch of Brooklyn scoring in four consecutive innings, and five of the next six.
The ‘Clones pulled out in front one frame later, thanks to an RBI single from Smith in the fourth.
In the fifth, Stanley Consuegra provided the pop. The outfielder cleared the left field fence, giving Brooklyn its eighth home run in the last four contests. With the long ball, Consuegra is now one home run behind tying C Francisco Alvarez for the most ever in a single season by a Cyclone.
Brooklyn kept up the offensive onslaught, tacking on two more in the sixth. First, LF Omar De Los Santos brought one home on a sacrifice fly. Then, SS Jett Williams laced a triple to right field, before the throw in to third found its way into the dugout, allowing Williams to take home on the error.
More insurance came in the eighth, when Smith singled home Brooklyn’s sixth run of the night. The former USC Trojan came home to score moments later, on an RBI base knock from Williams. That pushed Brooklyn’s lead to 7-1, which would hold for the final.
Elsewhere in the South Atlantic League, Jersey Shore defeated Hudson Valley, 2-0, meaning that Brooklyn’s lead atop the North Division remains at one game. Any combination of Brooklyn wins and Jersey Shore losses that equate to four would give Brooklyn a playoff berth.
The ‘Clones and Blue Rocks return to action Thursday evening at Maimonides Park. RHP Jawilme Ramírez (1-1, 6.56) goes for Brooklyn, where he’ll oppose Wilmington’s RHP Andry Lara (6-8, 4.63). First pitch from Maimonides Park is slated for 7:00 p.m.
