Brooklyn Cruises Behind Orellana and Consuegra
The Mets’ farm system affiliates split their four games on Friday evening. Brooklyn easily handled the Hudson Valley Renegades as the High-A subway series continued. The Cyclones received another quality start from Douglas Orellana and a breakout performance by their bats.
Triple-A
Scranton Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (32-17) 7, Syracuse Mets (29-19) 3
- 2B Jose Iglesias: 2-for-4, 2B, 2 RBI (28), K (.814 OPS)
- SS Luisangel Acuña: 0-for-3, R, BB (.625 OPS)
- DH Mike Brosseau 2-for-4, R, HR (5), RBI (14), K (.840 OPS)
The Mets battled from behind most of the game after the RailRiders put up runs in the third and fourth innings. Mike Brosseau hit his fifth homer for Syracuse, making himself an infield-depth option for the major league club.
Despite not recording a hit, Luisangel Acuña extended his on-base streak to nine games.
- LHP David Peterson (2.79 ERA) 4 IP, 3 R (2 ER), 7 H, 1 BB, 6 K (89 pitches/65 strikes)
- RHP Yacksel Ríos (3.05 ERA) 1 IP, 2 R (0 ER), 2 H, 2 BB, 2 K
Rehabbing David Peterson made his third start in Syracuse and was not as dominant as he had previously been during his minor league stint – allowing two earned runs on seven hits in only four innings of work.
Double-A
Binghamton Rumble Ponies (23-18) 2, Reading Fightin’ Phils (18-25) 1 In 10 Innings
- SS Wyatt Young 2-for-4, R, HR (4), 2 RBI (11) (.835 OPS)
- 1B Ryan Clifford: 1-for-4, R, 2B, 2 K (.540 OPS)
- C Kevin Parada: 1-for-4, K (.667 OPS)
Binghamton squeaked by Reading in extra-innings, led by Wyatt Young who drove both of the Rumble Ponies’ runs – via a solo home run and the game-winning RBI single in the 10th inning. Young has now homered in consecutive games while raising his OPS to .835.
Homered so nice thought he'd do it twice ????

High-A
Hudson Valley Renegades (20-20) 1, Brooklyn Cyclones (23-20) 7
- CF Stanley Consuegra 1-for-4, R, HR (4), 4 RBI (17), BB, 2 K (.767 OPS)
- DH Wilfredo Lara 2-for-4, RBI (12) (.540 OPS)
- RF Nick Morabito 2-for-4, 2 R, BB (.792 OPS)
- SS William Lugo 1-for-4, R, HR (2), RBI (15), K (.578 OPS)
Behind excellent pitching and Stanley Consuegra’s fourth-inning grand slam, the Cyclones cruised to an easy victory over Hudson Valley. William Lugo added a solo shot of his own in the sixth inning, which extended Brooklyn’s lead to 7-1.
It's a Grand Slam-ley from Stanley! ????
