Ohio pitcher Dave Utley did his part in helping his team beat the Oregon Explorers, 4-3. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. In 5 innings, Utley surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 3. He allowed 1 run. Santiago Gutierrez earned save number 3 this season.

Ohio second baseman Hiromitsu Hashimoto had a key at-bat for the Knights in the bottom of the fifth inning. Facing Oregon pitcher Ed Cobb, Hashimoto hit a 2-run home run to make the score 3-0, Ohio. For the day, he went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Hashimoto told a Ohio Daily News reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."

The Knights go to 16-20, putting them 4th in the Patriot League South.
