Birdwings Stop Knights, 10-1
The Ocala Knights took it on the chin, losing, 10-1, to the Hazleton Birdwings. Steve Matkin, who is rated as the 17th best prospect by BNN, pitched a strong game for Hazleton. Matkin, now 2-1, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 6, walking 3, and allowing 1 run. Hazleton is in first place in the RCL A Tommy Lasorda Division with a record of 38-18.

Ben Gasper had a big bases-clearing double for the Birdwings in the bottom of the second inning. With Hazleton leading 2-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from Hector Flores, who is tied for 6th in the TA in complete games with 1, and swatted a double to left. It was his 12th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Birdwings ahead, 5-0.

"We'll need a much better effort, the next time out," said losing manager Alexis Coates.
