Generals Lose to Empires in Walk-Off
|
The Empires grabbed a win, 7-6, at Queens Field, overcoming a fine effort from Atlanta pitcher Alfredo Morales. Morales went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs. The Empires are now 45-44, while the Generals fall to 49-38.
Lowell Bickle was the walk-off hero for New York. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Empires second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.
"We couldn't have scripted it any better," Bickle said in his postgame press conference.
