The Cyclones Are Going To The Playoffs!
An article by 
Congratulations to the Brooklyn Cyclones!!!
The New York Mets may not be going beyond the regular season in 2012, but their Single-A affiliate Brooklyn Cyclones sure are! The ‘Clones fell today to the Lowell Spinners, but with the magic number at one, a Jamestown routing of the Batavia Muckdogs paved the way for a New York-Penn League playoff berth.
The Cyclones will take on the Hudson Valley Renegades in Game One of a best-of-three playoff series beginning on Friday, September 7th. First pitch is scheduled for 7:00 PM.
The Cyclones were 7-3 against the Renegades during the regular season. Hansel Robles – who led the NYPL and established a franchise record with a 1.11 ERA during the 2012 campaign – will get the start. The righthander did not allow an earned run over 33.0 innings during the month of August and went 4-0 in five starts.
The Cyclones will send Hansel Robles, who leads the NYPL and set a ‘Clones single-season record with a microscopic 1.11 ERA, to the hill for Game One.
Congrats to our Brooklyn Cyclones!!!
