Fighting Knights Lose as Sunrays Stage Late Rally
The Niskayuna Fighting Knights got a superb performance from pitcher Alex Ruiz, but the Ontario Sunrays still won the game, 7-5. Ruiz threw 5.1 innings of shutout ball. Niskayuna, with the loss, is still a stout 3-1.

John Jimenez came through with a big-time hit for Ontario. The designated hitter smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 7-5. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Ontario manager Sam Story.
