Fighting Knights Score Late to Nip Wranglers, 3-2
In a low-scoring contest between the Niskayuna Fighting Knights and the Newport News Wranglers, Ricky Flores was the X factor. The Niskayuna right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. Niskayuna pitcher Chad Iverson got the win, upping his record to 1-0. Steve Gallagher got the loss. The Fighting Knights now have a record of 32-30.

The game-ending blow was delivered by Albert Garcia in the bottom of the tenth. That's when he hit a solo home run off 18-year old right-handed pitcher Steve Gallagher to win it for Niskayuna and cause the home crowd to erupt in celebration.

"This place was rockin'," Garcia said.
