Blues Drop Blackhawks, 8-6
The New York City Blues racked up a win at Trident Field, bumping off the Chicago Blackhawks, 8-6. Keith Higdon, who started for New York City, pitched effectively for his team. Phil Knobbe earned the save, his 18th, for the Blues. The win makes New York City 34-45.

New York City used a clutch at-bat from Ryan Burns to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Blues ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Higdon. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."
