BIG MOMENTS

Cody Bohanek went 3-3 with two doubles, a triple, a walk, and a stolen base, working as the catalyst for the offense all night. With the game tied 1-1 in the top of the eighth, Bohanek's RBI triple scored Antoine Duplantis from first base to give Brooklyn the lead. Bohanek also scored from third base on Ronny Mauricio's run-scoring fielder's choice to extend the lead to 3-1. He doubled and scored the Cyclones' first run in the fourth inning.

Justin Lasko turned in a quality start, striking out four over six innings of one-run ball. Brian Metoyer earned the victory with two scoreless innings, facing the minimum across the seventh and eighth innings, and Andrew Edwards struck out a pair to earn the save in the ninth.
