Threshers Win Nail-Biter
The Clearwater Threshers wiggled past the Lakeland Flying Tigers, 3-2, at Joker Marchant Stadium. The win was highlighted by the performance of Clearwater pitcher Matt Knowlton. The setback makes Lakeland 56-76.

Clearwater used the timely hitting of Robert Lowry to seize the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Threshers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Main thing is I want the team to win," Knowlton told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win."
