Gonzalez Stars for Knights in 8-6 Win
The Brooklyn Knights knocked off the Arizona Desert Storm, 8-6, at Brooklyn Coliseum. Esteban Gonzalez was a big reason Brooklyn won. The right fielder was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. The win was credited to 28-year old shortstop Grant Ferguson in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Esteban Vega took the loss. The Knights now have a mark of 52-54.

Ed Putty, who is tied for 6th in the AL in extra base hits with 47, chipped in a 2-run home run for Brooklyn in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the first baseman had 3 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 2 singles, 1 run scored, and 3 RBI.

Putty told a Brooklyn Bulletin reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
