Fighting Knights Beat Alpines, 8-4
Niskayuna third baseman Albert Garcia had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Savannah Alpines, 8-4. Ricky Flores earned the win for Niskayuna. He lasted 5.2 innings, allowing 1 run on 6 hits, while striking out 4. With the win, he raised his record to 9-1. Allen Ellingson wrapped it up, recording his 2nd save.

Niskayuna used a clutch at-bat from Alex Marquez to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Fighting Knights ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Garcia.

The third-place Fighting Knights go to 52-51.
