Pitching was the name of the game in a tight contest between the Boston Whitecaps and the Niagara Falls Pipe Fitters. Boston won it, 2-1. Boston starter Chris Knotts was in command. In 8 innings, Knotts surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 7 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. With the victory, the Whitecaps record stands at 71-45.

The Whitecaps got a big at-bat from right fielder Matt Farmer. For the game, Farmer went 1 for 4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI. In the bottom of the third, with runners on 1st and 3rd, he stroked a 2-run double. His 22nd double of the season gave Boston a 2-0 lead.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Knotts. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."
