Big Day for Thurston in 11-6 Green Knights Win
At Ballpark of Spring Park, the Carson City Miners and Spring Park Green Knights were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

The 11-6 Spring Park win over Carson City was due in large part to Justin Thurston. The Green Knights first baseman went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4. Jim Unknown, the winning pitcher, improved to 1-0. He pitched 5 innings, giving up 7 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 5 and walking 5.

In the first inning, Thurston had a 3-run home run for Spring Park. It was his 19th home run of the season and put the Green Knights on top, 3-0.

"It was a solid team effort," said Thurston after the game.

The Green Knights now have a record of 28-47.
