Renegades 7, Cyclones 0
Monday, Aug. 3, at Keyspan Park
Starter Mark Cohoon (6–2, 2.64) was effective enough, yielding four runs on just three hits in his six-plus innings.
He gave up a run in the first after an error by returning Cyclone Jake Eigsti. He settled down until the sixth, when he gave up another run on a solo shot.
But he didn’t even get an out in the seventh, yielding two walks in a row. Reliever Erik Turgeon then gave up two singles and both inherited runs scored.
The leaky pen gave up two more in the ninth.
The Cyclones managed just five hits on the night, but had an amazing number of chances.
The team got runners on first and second with no outs in the first, but Justin Garber foolishly tried to steal third and was thrown out.
And in the third, Garber and Eigsti led off with singles, but Eigsti was thrown out trying to reach second on a passed ball.
