Aurora Win, 7-3, Versus Sicily
Aurora shortstop Caesar Friis-Knutzen left his mark on his team's 7-3 win over the Sicily Mafia. Friis-Knutzen, who is a two-time All-Star, was 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once for Iceland in the contest. With the loss, Sicily sinks to 0-2.

Friis-Knutzen had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a 0-2 cutter from Renaud Goffi, he banged a 2-run home run to left-center, giving the Aurora a 4-2 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Friis-Knutzen.

"Nice win for us," said Friis-Knutzen. "Now we'll go after the next one."
