For Cyclones, It’s Miller Time
Brooklyn's emerging ace named NY-Penn Pitcher of the Week
Any team with playoff aspirations — especially one stuck in last place — needs an ace to lead it back into serious contention.
For the Brooklyn Cyclones, Miller Diaz has suddenly emerged as that ace.
The hard-throwing Venezuelan right-hander earned New York-Penn League Pitcher of the Week honors after Saturday’s sparkling five-inning effort in a much-needed 3-0 victory over visiting Batavia in front of 6,354 rain-soaked fans at Coney Island’s MCU Park.
