The heat is on Brooklyn
Last-place Cyclones trying to climb out of early season funk
It had to happen sometime.
After playing a perfect second base for the first three weeks of his professional career, LJ Mazzilli committed a pair of fielding errors Tuesday afternoon as the Brooklyn Cyclones saw their season-high winning streak snapped at three games with a 5-2 loss to Lowell before 5,886 fans at Coney Island’s newly renovated MCU Park.
Mazzilli, the son of former Mets great and current Yankees front-office man Lee Mazzilli, had gone error-free in his first 20 games with the Baby Bums. He booted a fourth-inning grounder during Tuesday’s defeat, but quickly rebounded to make a pair of 4-3 putouts to help the Cyclones get off the field without allowing a run.
