Cossacks Beat Pizzas in 11
The Kyiv Cossacks did just enough to nip the Detroit Pizzas, 2-1, in 11 innings. Kyiv pitcher Bill Williams, in particular, had a standout performance. At 62-70, Kyiv is in third place in the Federation League Knuckleheads Division.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. With the game tied in the bottom of the 11th, an error by the Pizzas allowed the Cossacks to score the winning run.

"These kind of wins can be so good for a club's psyche," Kyiv manager Boris Lahutin said.
