Durham Bulls Athletic Park was the site of a tense game between the Durham Bulls and Charlotte Knights.

The Knights grabbed a win, 2-1, at Durham Bulls Athletic Park, overcoming a fine effort from Durham pitcher Brad Thompson. Thompson went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. After today's action, Charlotte sits at 22-19, while Durham falls to 24-17.

Charlotte needed the clutch hitting of Waylon McFergus to seal the deal. The third baseman swatted a solo home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Knights on top, 2-1. For the game, McFergus had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We were in it," said Durham manager R.A. Dickey. "We just didn't score enough runs."
