Knight: Right-hander Dusten Knight allowed his inherited runner from starter Matt Gage to score…has now allowed three of 12 inherited runners to score this season…struck out four Omaha hitters over his 2.1 innings of relief and retired the final seven batters he faced.
Shaw: Left fielder
Streak Snapped: The River Cats tied their season-high by winning four straight games…are now 1-4 in their last five games in Omaha and have been outscored 26-10.
