Bruce goes 4-for-4 in Fighting Knights Win
At Fighting Knights Field, the Montgomery Missions and Niskayuna Fighting Knights were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

The exploits of first baseman Elijah Bruce helped the Niskayuna Fighting Knights defeat the Montgomery Missions, 5-1. Bruce was 4 for 4 with a home run and 3 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Niskayuna is now 27-27, Montgomery 29-25.

Bruce had a key at-bat for Niskayuna in the bottom of the second. With a runner on 2nd, he hit a 2-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and gave Niskayuna an early 2-0 lead.

"We need better swings, better at-bats," said losing manager Hoa Nguyen-Dinh.
