Hotter than July: Sabol, Cyclones blazing through Brooklyn heat wave
The sweltering heat beating down on Coney Island has got nothing on Stefan Sabol and the sizzling Brooklyn Cyclones.
Sabol went went 2-for-4 with his first pro homer, a double, two RBIs and two runs scored to extend his hitting streak to 10 games, as the Baby Bums celebrated Independence Day before a sun-drenched crowd of 6,400 at MCU Park with their season-high sixth straight win, a 9-5 thumping of visiting Williamsport.
The 20-year-old Sabol, the Mets’ 17th-round pick out of Orange Coast College in California last month, is batting an earth-scorching .432 (16-for-37) with a homer, five doubles, six RBIs and seven runs scored during his recent run, boosting his overall average to .360 through 14 games for the Class A short-season franchise by the sea.
