Utes Rebuff Knights, 5-3
The Utah Utes overcame a fine performance by New York left fielder Arnold Ramirez to defeat the Knights, 5-3, at Popcorn Dome. Ramirez was 3 for 4 with a triple and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs. The win was credited to Jorge Aleman in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Juan Hernandez took the loss. Cesar Cordero got the save, his 10th in 10 chances.

The Utes got an important contribution from designated hitter Derek Tufnel, who in the bottom of the second punched a full count fastball into right-center for a 3-run home run. It was his 20th home run of the season and put the Utes ahead, 5-1.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Tufnel said.

The win puts Utah at 84-66 this season.
