Knights Topple Red Sox with Late Rally
The Charlotte Knights handed the Boston Red Sox a loss at Fenway Park. The final score was 11-2. Tony Batista was named player of the game for Charlotte. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The winner was Charlotte reliever Matt Mantei, now 7-3. The loser was Roberto Hernandez. Charlotte now has a 3-game win streak.

Charlotte used the bat of Carl Everett to get the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Knights ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Everett.
