Fighting Knights Victors, 3-1, at Sikeston
The Niskayuna Fighting Knights had to overcome a good performance from Sikeston pitcher Tom Donnelly to claim a 3-1 win at Shamrocks Park. Donnelly went 8.2 innings and allowed 3 runs. Alex Ruiz earned the save, his 3rd, for the Fighting Knights. Niskayuna now owns a record of 56-62.

The Fighting Knights got an important contribution from third baseman Ken Beck, who in the top of the third punched a full count fastball to right for a 2-run home run. It was his 20th home run of the season and put the Fighting Knights ahead, 3-0.

"I give credit to my teammates for this win. We got it done," Beck told the Niskayuna Gazette.
