Knights, Merrit Pin Bad Loss on Lions
Behind a solid performance from first baseman Cedric Merrit, the Los Angeles Knights defeated the St. Louis Lions, 10-0. Merrit went 2 for 3 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 2 and driving in 3 for the Knights. Manny Sanchez earned the win, while 34-year old right-handed pitcher Phil Van Haren took the loss for St. Louis. Los Angeles is now 34-44, St. Louis 44-34.

With Los Angeles leading 7-0 in the top of the eighth, Merrit batted against St. Louis pitcher Simon Ciolino. Merrit hit a cutter to right for a 3-run home run. His 5th home run of the season put the Knights on top, 10-0.

"Not much to say," St. Louis manager Leo Cruz said, when asked afterward about the defeat.
