2027 Cecil Cup Game 2

The Brick Barracudas stole home field advantage in the 2027 Cecil Cup with a victory in game two, defeating the Seattle Monarchs 6-4, tying the best-of-seven series at one game each.

Brick starter Joseph Brown won his third game of the postseason, and Matt Foster and Salvador Velasquez both homered to lead the Barracudas.

While a furious Monarchs comeback attempt in the bottom of the ninth left the team with the tying run at bat, Norman Kuhn grounded out to second to end the game.

Will the series return to Seattle? The Monarchs will have to steal one from the Barracudas in order to do so.

With the first Cecil Cup game in current ownership history coming on Saturday night, the Barracudas announced that they are bringing Seattle's own Heart to Brick, NJ, where the Wilson sisters will sing the national anthem before the game, and perform their hit Barracuda during the 7th inning stretch.

I'll have that sim on Saturday night after a travel day tomorrow, when the baseball world turns its gaze upon the Jersey Shore.
