Knights starter and star prospect Noah Schultz, 22, ran into some trouble in the top of the first.

César Prieto led off the game with a double, and Joshua Báez followed with an RBI single. Báez proceeded to score an unearned run with two outs after an error by Jacob Gonzalez. However, Schultz recovered nicely, and he only allowed one earned run on two hits in five innings, and he racked up nine strikeouts.

The Knights did not score during the first two innings, but they made up for lost time and then some in the third. After a walk to Josh Breaux and a single by William Bergolla Jr. , Korey Lee launched a three-run homer to turn the game around and give Charlotte a 3-2 lead.

The Knights led from that point forward, but they were not done. Oliver Dunn was hit by a pitch, and Gonzalez crushed his third homer of the year to extend Charlotte’s lead to three.
