Lumber slumber killing Cyclones’ chances
Brooklyn Bats Remain Silent in 4-0 Loss to Visiting Hudson Valley
The numbers remain staggering, and somewhat embarrassing.
The last-place Cyclones, by far the worst-hitting team in the New York-Penn League, and perhaps all of professional baseball, experienced another offensive meltdown at Coney Island’s MCU Park on Wednesday night, dropping a 4-0 decision to the Hudson Valley Renegades in front of 4,568 frustrated Brooklyn baseball fanatics.
While the McNamara Division title remains within reach — the Cyclones (30-33) are just three games behind first-place Staten Island with 13 games remaining in the regular season — Brooklyn’s dead bats don’t appear capable of providing the league’s best pitching staff with enough support for the Baby Bums to make a legitimate run at their first playoff spot in three years.
