The Colonials scored their last and final run in the ninth inning when left fielder Jermel Lomack batted in Knazek. Four different Colonials recorded a pair of hits in the game, and first baseman Cristobal Santana led Rockland with two hits in four at-bats. Ryan Knippschild, now1-3 on the season, recorded the loss by allowing nine hits, four runs and striking out four in eight innings pitched.
