Last Night's Action: Baby Bombers Beat Cyclones Again

2006_06_ssiyankees.jpg - Yankees 5, Cyclones 2: The Staten Island Yankees beat the Cyclones for the 3rd game in a row to open the season. The game, played at Keyspan Park, was much closer than Tuesday's 18-0 shutout by the Yankees. On the plus side, the Cyclones did score their first runs at home all season.

- Mets 6, Reds 2: Pedro Martinez pitched a 2-hitter but allowed 5 walks in his 7th win of the season. The Mets were aided by two home runs by David Wright in the last game of the four-game series. After their hot streak on the road, the Mets were only 3-4 in their brief homestand. The Mets now hit the road for 9 straight games against the AL East's best teams, Toronto, Boston, and their crosstown rivals in The Bronx.

You know this is really pissing me off. "On the plus side the Cyclones did score their first runs at home" what the eff! The Staten Island Yankees are just as much a New York team as the Cyclones. They've actually been around longer and have more championships too. This is the second time in two days that I've heard that the SI Yanks beating the Cyclones was a bad thing. Seems to me like either way the city would have won!

you're right, it should be "on the plus side for the cyclones."
