No boost in sight for fading Brooklyn Cyclones
Brooklyn Slipping Out of Contention in Tightly Packed McNamara
The cavalry is not coming.
There is no hero on a white horse arriving to rescue what is now almost certain to be a lost 15th season for the Brooklyn Cyclones.
Following their latest excruciating defeat, a 4-2 setback at Tri-City in front of 4,778 fans at Joseph L. Bruno Stadium on Monday night, the Baby Bums slipped a season-high five games out of first place in the McNamara Division behind Hudson Valley, Staten Island and Aberdeen with only eight games to play.
In other words, all they need is a miracle … or two before the arch rival Yankees, who are deadlocked with the Renegades for the division’s top spot, show up at MCU Park in Coney Island next week for a regular season-ending three-game set.
