Niskayuna Downed, 6-4, by Shamrocks
The Sikeston Shamrocks got a hard-earned win over the Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 6-4, in 10 innings. Chris Cooper provided some offensive muscle for Sikeston. He went 5-6 with 5 singles. The loss makes Niskayuna 43-42.

The game was all tied up in the top of the tenth, until Cooper delivered big-time for Sikeston, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Oscar Garcia. The game-changing hit put the Shamrocks on top, 5-4.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Cooper. "And not try to do too much."
