Gold Sox, Sakai Pin Bad Loss on Red Knights
Chicago shortstop Naohiro Sakai was a significant contributor in his team's 10-2 triumph over the Capital District Red Knights. He went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for Chicago. Keisuke Nishida, who went 7 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 1 run on 2 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 6. His record now stands at 11-4. Their 56-33 record puts the Gold Sox second in the Third League.

Sakai came through with some timely hitting for Chicago. With the score 2-1 in the bottom of the first and two down, Sakai hit a 1-1 fastball for a 2-run home run. It was his 6th home run of the season -- and a big reason the Gold Sox managed to win.

Sakai said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."
