Knights Spoil Great Performance by de la Cruz
Houston got a terrific game from third baseman Julio de la Cruz. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Ocala, 8-6. de la Cruz was 4 for 4 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Chris Correa was the winner. Over 6 innings, he yielded 5 runs on 11 hits, with 2 walks and 6 strikeouts. The 6th-place Knights improved to 46-41.

The Knights got a big boost from first baseman Elijah Stevens who had a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the first inning off Sting hurler Leo Sanchez. It was his 52nd walk of the season and put Ocala on top, 1-0.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Alexis Coates said.
