Knights Earn Win with Late Rally
Despite a fine performance by first baseman Roberto Marquez, the Buffalo Bisons lost to the Charlotte Knights, 12-11, in 11 innings. Marquez went 2 for 3 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 4 and driving in 2. Charlotte, at 50-65, holds down last place in the South Division.

In the bottom of the 11th, Bill Rivera knew he could end it with one good swing of the bat. And he did, hitting a run-scoring single off Buffalo pitcher Matt Burgos.

"What a game," said Rivera. "We needed every last run."
