Ottawa Knights (40-88) 0 0 0 3 3 0 0 0 0 6 8 1

Hilliard Rips 2 Home Runs in 12-6 Aces Triumph
Atlantic City catcher Carroll Hilliard had 5 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Ottawa Knights, 12-6. The Knights, now 40-88, have lost 11 in a row.

Had Sonny Jackson not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Jackson hit a 2-run double. That made the score 8-6, in favor of the Aces.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Jackson.
