Niskayuna Dealt 5-2 Defeat
Newport News and Niskayuna got after it at Wranglers Stadium.

The Newport News Wranglers got a stellar effort from pitcher Bohdan Kasatkin, helping Newport News score a win over the visiting Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 5-2. Newport News reliever Bohdan Kasatkin got the win, raising his record to 1-0. Joe Giunta was tagged with the loss.

The Fighting Knights had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Wranglers going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 21-year old left fielder Luis Alvarez came to the plate. Alvarez hit a run-scoring double on a 0-1 sinker from Niskayuna hurler Joe Giunta. It was Alvarez's 4th double of the year.

"It feels good to get this one," Alvarez told the Newport News News.

The Wranglers have a one-game lead in the Sub League 2 East Division.
