The Charlotte Knights got a stellar performance from pitcher Scott Bankhead, who handcuffed the Kansas City offense en route to a 4-2 win at Comiskey Park. The Knights own a robust 68-39 mark.

Making an impact for the home team was Jeff Bagwell. In the bottom of the fifth, the top prospect had a run-scoring ground out. That made the score 3-1, Knights.

"We've got a great group of guys," Bagwell said, "and we're having fun right now."
