Fighting Knights Win Thriller, 4-3
The Niskayuna Fighting Knights had to overcome a big game from Savannah right fielder Stephen West to leave Fighting Knights Field with a victory. And they did, winning, 4-3, in 11 innings. West went 3 for 5 with a home run and a triple. He scored 2 times. The loss makes Savannah 41-53.

Niskayuna got a game-changing hit from Mike Seals. The right fielder blasted a solo home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a winner.

"This stadium was a-rockin'," said Seals.
