Super Troopers Take Down Fighting Knights, 1-0
Roy Garcia pitched a dandy of a game to help the Santa Barbara Super Troopers beat the Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 1-0. Steve Albrecht, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 24th save. The win elevated the Super Troopers to 90-25.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Cameron Kovatch? The 21-year old center fielder Kovatch stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put Santa Barbara up, 1-0. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

"I had pretty good command out there," said Garcia.
