Pitcher Chad Knight knocked in the run in the bottom of the fifth with the bases loaded and one out. Knight hit a grounder to Lincoln third baseman Zarek Larisa, who had a play at the plate but bobbled the ball and had to settle for a force out at third, allowing Offenberg to score. Offenberg had led off the inning with a double. CLICK TO ENLARGE) Douglas Healey for WestportNow.com
