Clippers Get Clutch Win, 5-4
Fans witnessed a whale of a game between the Columbus Clippers and Charlotte Knights.

The Charlotte Knights could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Ron Stewart into a win. Instead, the Columbus Clippers prevailed, 5-4. Stewart threw 6.0 innings of 5-hit ball. Earning the save was Jesus A. Sanchez. He's now cashed in 9 of 10 save opportunities.

Jesús Santos was 1-4 for Columbus. The 26-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off T.J. Adams. It was his 22nd RBI of the season.

Columbus manager Carlos Garcia commended his team for delivering "maximum effort."

The Clippers now have a record of 49-30 with the win over Charlotte.
