Knights Win at Cincinnati, 11-4
Charlotte shortstop Nomar Garciaparra was a significant contributor in his team's 11-4 triumph over the Cincinnati Reds. He was 2-5 with a home run. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for Charlotte. The Knights bumped their record to 69-63 with this latest triumph.

Charlotte catcher Todd Zeile went deep in the top of the second. His 3-run home run off Cincinnati pitcher Jim Abbott put the Knights in front, 3-0. It was his 18th home run of the season.

"If it's down the middle," said Garciaparra, "you might as well hit it."
