Knights Topple Red Sox with Late Rally
Getting an impressive start from Fumiya Nishiguchi, Charlotte beat Boston by the score of 4-2. The first-place Knights now have a 6-game winning streak.

Charlotte used the timely hitting of Chuck Knoblauch to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Knights on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Boston manager Brett Williams said he was "mildly disappointed" with the loss. "We had our opportunities, but we didn't take advantage of them," he said.
