The Knights beat the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp in hitting, pitching, defense, scoring runs, and baseball, giving them their eighth win of September and bringing their record to 57-88.
Starting pitcher Scott Blewett has struggled in AAA all three seasons he’s pitched there (spending parts of two years with the Omaha Stormchasers). Recently promoted to Charlotte after posting a 5.03 ERA in 111 innings with the Barons, Blewett allowed five runs in six innings today, lowering his Knights ERA through three starts to 12.75. He did not, however, walk a batter, and did exit with a permanent lead for the win.
