Cyclones heat up at the Jersey Shore
After winning four out of six games at home against Greensboro, the Cyclones resumed play after the Major League All-Star break.
Coming off a good homestand, the Cyclones were anxious to test their momentum in a three-game weekend road series against the Jersey Shore Blue Claws. That newfound momentum actually carried the team as they swept the series with a display of power and strong pitching.
Starting off on Friday night, the Mets’ No. 4 prospect, outfielder Alex Ramirez, lit the fuse with a first-inning home run and then proceeded to go 4-for-5 with five RBIs. Righthander Carson Seymour (1-5) earned his first win of the season while striking out 10 batters over six innings in the 10-3 win.
