INDIANAPOLIS - Keon Broxton drove in two runs for the Indianapolis Indians (61-46) while the duo of Chris Volstad and Jeff Inman limited the Charlotte Knights (59-49) to five hits as the Tribe rolled to a 5-1 win Friday night at Victory Field.

Broxton doubled to extend his on-base streak to 24 consecutive games. It's the longest active streak in the International League.
