NALB - April 2022

The Brooklyn Knights were without star right fielder Blas Ramos for the first half of April. In his absence, however, Maurílio Godim did a fine job. Ramos recovered from his torn abdominal muscle and returned to the lineup for the rest of the month. The Knights got off to a slow start losing four out of their first five games and six out of their first nine. Brooklyn's pitching was mostly excellent, particularly its starting pitching. Once the Knights started to hit, they ran off a pretty good winning streak and ended April in first place with a 15-9 record. Most of the division races are very tight at this point, as is to be expected only one month into the season.
