atBlueClaws at CyclonesThe Cyclones ground out a one-run victory over the BlueClaws in a pitching-dominated contest, with Chase Meggers reaching on a fielder's choice in the bottom of the eighth to score Jamari Baylor for the game's only run. The Cyclones outhit their opponent and improved their record, while Tanner Gresham's dominant arm for the BlueClaws could not overcome the offensive shortage. The two teams meet again on Sunday.
The Cyclones edged the BlueClaws 1-0 in a low-scoring affair, grinding through eight innings before breaking through in the bottom of the eighth when Meggers reached on a fielder's choice off second baseman Daunte Stuart, allowing Baylor to score.
Aidan Smith led the Cyclones at the plate, going 2-for-4, and the Cyclones outhit the BlueClaws 5-3 to seize control of the contest.
Tanner Gresham deserved better for the BlueClaws, scattering five hits while striking out five over 5.2 scoreless innings, but the offense could not manufacture a run to support him.
The Cyclones are coming off a win, 6-4 over their last 10. The BlueClaws are coming off a loss, 2-8 over their last 10.
The Cyclones are up next at Renegades (Aug 27-29). The BlueClaws are up next home vs Blue Rocks (Aug 27-29).
Ranked by win probability added: how far each player's plays moved this game's odds, not how their box-score line reads. A single with the bases loaded in the ninth outranks a home run in a blowout, because that is what actually decided it.
