Prater, Green Knights Too Much for Fighting Knights
Spring Park beat Niskayuna at Ballpark of Spring Park, escaping with a 7-6 win. The win in large part was due to designated hitter Kevin Prater. He slugged 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3. Jim Unknown got the win, improving to 1-0. He worked 8 innings, giving up 2 runs on 4 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 3. Jim Unknown got credit for the save for Spring Park. It was his 1st of the year.

With Spring Park leading 5-1 in the bottom of the sixth, Prater came up to bat against Niskayuna pitcher Tillmam Couarde. Prater hit a slider to center for a 2-run home run. His 12th home run of the season put the Green Knights on top, 7-1.

"It's still just a game," said Prater, "whether you win or lose."

Spring Park bumps their record to 41-60 with the win.
