Knights Lose, 7-4, to Louisville
Louisville rode a decent outing from starter Joe Nixon to victory over the Charlotte Knights. The final score was 7-4. Nixon went 5.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 1, and struck out 5. His record improves to 4-0. Antoine Kelly collected save number 6.

Louisville used a well-timed hit by Bartolomeo Poliziano to capture the win. The third baseman socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Bats ahead, 6-3. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Feels good to get the job done," Poliziano said after the game.

With the loss, Charlotte drops to 12-16.
