The Knights are doing everything they can to make sure the road to the World Championship Series goes through Brooklyn. After a strong 18-7 start in April, the Knights followed with a 21-7 record in May. Brooklyn's only adversity came in its last game of the month. On a four for four day, DH Blas Ramos sprained his knee legging out a double. Ramos heads to the IL and will miss five weeks. The Luisville Beasts also easily maintained an iron grip on first place. The Key West Corals are back in first place as they battle the Allies and resurgent Maples. In League 2 Division 2, the Richmond Slam edged the Vancouver Wild by a single game to take the top spot.
