BLACKHAM, BLANKS'EM -- CYCLONES WIN 2-0BROOKLYN,NY – July 4, 2015 – On Independence Day neither teams' bats provided much fireworks, but Cyclones starter Matt Blackham lowered the boom on the Crosscutters. The righthander was nearly flawless over his 7.0 innings as Brooklyn defeated Williamsport 2-0. The Cyclones improved to 10-5 with their victory and handed Williamsport (13-2) just their second loss of the season. The Cyclones and Crosscutters matched zeroes through the first three innings as Brooklyn starter Matt Blackham and ‘Cutters hurler Jose Taveras mowed through the opposing lineups. Neither team got a runner past first base until the bottom of the fourth when the Cyclones were able to give the scoreboard some company. Vinny Siena started the two out threat with a line drive single to left before back-to-back walks of David Thompson and Jeff Diehl loaded the bases. With Zach Mathieu behind in the count 0-2, Taveras uncorked a wild pitch that allowed Siena to score and gave Brooklyn the early 1-0 lead. The Cyclones and Crosscutters will square off again on Sunday evening at MCU Park for the middle game of the three-game series. It will be the 2nd Annual Salute to Seinfeld Night at the ballpark with the first 2,500 fans in attendance going home with a Little Jerry BobbleBeak. Tickets, which start at just $10, are still available by calling 718-507-TIXX, logging on to BrooklynCyclones.com or in person at the MCU Park box office.
