Fighting Knights Suffer One-Run Loss at Savannah
The Savannah Alpines defeated the Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 6-5, at Alpines Stadium. Savannah was led by 21-year old second baseman Keith Connelly, who was 2-3 with 2 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Reliever Steve Shewmaker picked up the win. His record improves to 2-0. Juan Esquibel took the loss. Savannah is in last place in the Sub League 2 East Division with a record of 42-60.

Savannah took a 6-5 lead on Bill Rys's 8th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Rys hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Niskayuna pitcher Juan Esquibel visibly frustrated.

"We found a way to get it done," Connelly said.
