Savannah Beats Niskayuna in 10-Inning Thriller
The Savannah Alpines had to overcome a fine effort from Niskayuna pitcher Enrique Rodriguez to win, 4-3, in 10 innings at Alpines Stadium. Rodriguez went 6.2 innings and allowed no runs. The Alpines go to 14-23 with the win.

The decisive blow was delivered by Bill Rys in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 19-year old right-handed pitcher Juan Esquibel to win the game for Savannah. The home crowd went nuts.

"There's a warrior mentality with this team," said Alpines manager Ryan Allen.
