Brooklyn Drops Portland, 5-2
Brooklyn Royal Giants starter Frank Knauss was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the Portland Sea Dogs, 5-2. In 6 innings, Knauss surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. Brooklyn raised its record to 73-70 with the win.

Brooklyn used the timely hitting of Matt Holliday to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Royal Giants ahead, 3-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Holliday told the Brooklyn News.
