Renegades Fall to Brooklyn 5-2

The Hudson Valley Renegades lost to the Brooklyn Cyclones 5-2 on Monday night at MCU Park.

Brooklyn battled back to take the lead in the bottom of the first. Cory Vaughn delivered a two run homer to put the Cyclones on top 2-1.

The Cyclones increased their lead in the fifth inning. Rylan Sandoval doubled to right to lead off the inning. Darrel Ceciliani followed with a bunt single to move Sandoval to third. Vaughn knocked home a run with a ground out to score Sandoval. Jeff Flagg then cleared the bases with a two run homer to put Brooklyn ahead 5-1.

The Renegades would get another run in the top of the eighth. Burt Reynolds led off the inning with a triple to right, his second three bagger of the season. Reynolds would later score on a single by Philip Wunderlich. But that was all the offense the Renegades could muster as they lost 5-2.
