A single up the middle puts the tying run on.

A ground ball to short goes 6-4 to end the game.

Peters really gutted it out the last few innings, he went mostly to breaking stuff as he was obviously tired as he threw 120
pitches in the game.

That's either a change in strategy or Knebel may have a virus or something as it looked like he was in the pen warming up.

Anyway it's a big win 2-1 on another gem by Peters who is becoming the most reliable Horn pitcher it seems.

Really have to win tomorrow and take this series to keep the conference record in somewhat good shape.

Thanks, NBHorn7, for the updates.

I was away from a radio and from a computer for most of the game, so it was nice to catch up with the action when I got back home.
