LAST TIME OUT: Brooklyn clinched at least a series split with Hudson Valley, thanks to a 7-1 victory on Friday night... CF Stanley Consuegra clobbered the first grand slam of the season for the Cyclones in the fourth, to give Brooklyn a 5-0 lead at the time...All nine Cyclones collected at least one hit, while RF Nick Morabito and DH Wilfredo Lara enjoyed multi-hit contests...RHP Douglas Orellana fell one out shy of recording what would have been his first win (or decision) of the season, tossing 4.2 shutout innings with five strikeouts...RHP Jawilme RamÃrez took the baton the rest of the way, hurling 4.1 innings of one-run ball en route to the victory.
HE'S THE HOME RUN KING: OF Stanley Consuegra has been on a tear lately...Brooklyn's all-time leader in extra-base hits (72), home runs (32), and RBI (107) crushed a grand slam in Friday's win over Hudson Valley...Over the past six games, Consuegra is slashing .333/.482/.857 with an OPS of 1.339, while launching three home runs and two doubles during that span to go along with five runs and four walks...The 23-year-old is also two hits away (162) from matching OF Alex RamÃrez's (164) franchise record for base knocks...He is also four doubles (34) from matching RamÃrez's franchise mark (38)... On the final day of the 2023 regular season, he broke a tie with C Francisco Alvarez for Brooklyn's single-season home run record (23)...Consuegra also surpassed Alvarez (22) for the franchise record in career home runs on August 23 at Asheville...The Dominican native also broke the franchise's single-season record for extra-base hits (42) and tied the mark for RBI (63) set by Ronny Mauricio in 2021.
GRAND SLAM-LEY: CF Stanley Consuegra blasted the Cyclones' first grand slam of the 2024 season in the fourth inning of Friday night's victory vs. Hudson Valley...The four-RBI blast was the first for Brooklyn in 2024 and the first since DH Omar De Los Santos clubbed one on July 23, 2023, at Hudson Valley...In fact, since the start of the 2023 season, the Cyclones' three grand slams have all been drilled against the Renegades...3B Mateo Gil also smashed one in Hudson Valley on May 18, 2023...Consuegra's grand slam was the first by Brooklyn at Maimonides Park since CF Jaylen Palmer powered one vs. Aberdeen on June 12, 2022.
NICK THE QUICK: OF Nick Morabito has been as good as any offensive player in Minor League Baseball in 2024...The 21-year-old is second in Minor League Baseball in on-base percentage (.488), fourth in batting average (.364), seventh in stolen bases (23), and 13th in wRC+ (179)...Morabito stole three bases last Wednesday and did it again last Saturday...That mark is tied for the most by a Cyclone in the previous 23 years...The McLean, Va. native enters the day tied for 10th in the South Atlantic League in stolen bases (12) despite playing just 14 games.
DO NOT ENTER: RHP Douglas Orellana lowered his ERA to a minuscule 1.06 in Friday's win over Hudson Valley, spinning 4.2 shutout innings...Among arms with 34.0+ innings of work, Orellana leads the South Atlantic League in ERA (1.06), sixth in batting average against (.175), and eighth in WHIP (1.06),...Orellana's 1.06 ERA (4 ER in 34.0 IP) is the fourth-lowest in Minor League Baseball among pitchers with 34.0+ innings of work...Orellana set a personal and team season-high with 10 strikeouts on May 11 at Rome, the second double-digit strikeout game of his career...The Caraças, Venezuela native punched out a career-high 11 over four frames in Game 2 of a doubleheader for the Florida Complex League Mets on July 14, 2022...Orellana was the first Cyclone to strike out 10+ hitters in a single game since RHP Robert Colina punched out 10 in six innings in a win at Greenville on September 2, 2023.
