Aberdeen, MD: Jaison Vilera was pratically unhittable this evening as he worked quickly through 7.0 innngs of work. He struck out and walked... Willie Rios was not as dominant, though he was able to pitch through trouble through four innings of work. 
CYCLONES MAKE EARLY NOISE: It was all Brooklyn tonight and it started early. The Cyclones banged out three hits to jump on Willie Rios 2-0 in the second. Ross Adolph set the tone when he tripled to start the inning. He was brought in by an RBI double off the bat of Chandler Avant. The second run came when Walter Rasquin smoked a double down the left field line to score Avant. 
ALL VILERA: What a night for Jaison Vilera as he shut down the IronBirds lineup through seven scoreless innings. Vilera had already come into the night with the lowest ERA for the Cyclones starting staff at 1.86. That number only continued to lower as he was lights out here in Aberdeen tonight. He ended up given only three hits and his ERA lowered to 1.37. 
ECHEVARRIA SOLID: Javier Echevarria was very good tonight for Aberdeen. He kept things close as he pitched 2.0 innings of relief for Willie Rios. He only gave up one hit and didn't walk a batter. 
GREAT GLOVES: Alexis Torres was phenemenal at second base tonight. He made a number of tough plays look routine as he continues to be an important part of a very solid up the middle duo along with short-stop, Adam Hall. Also, Willy Yahn made a couple of nice plays at third as he continues to play solid defense at the hot corner. 
BIRD WATCHING: Adam Hall has gotten himself going of late. Last night he collected three hits, all singles. Tonight, he smoked a double in the left center gap. He had one of the three hits tonight for the 'Birds.
Seamus Curran is on rehab assignment for Aberdeen and he is starting to heat up. He laced a double, smoked a single and also walked tonight for a solid eveing at the plate. He finished the night 2-for-3.
