Overview
- Oklahoma City beat Las Vegas 7-2 to even the best-of-three PCL Championship Series and force a winner-take-all Game 3 at Las Vegas Ballpark.
- Starter Landon Knack delivered an efficient outing of roughly 6+ innings with five hits allowed, one run, zero walks and eight strikeouts that kept the Aviators off balance.
- The Comets built their lead with timely middle-inning offense, highlighted by a Zach Ehrhard two-run play and a three-run homer by James Tibbs III, with Ryan Fitzgerald adding a later solo shot.
- Las Vegas announced it plans to open the decisive game with lefty James Gonzalez in a bullpen-game approach, a tactical shift after the Game 2 loss.
- Oklahoma City made same-day roster moves that could affect depth: Chris Newell and Jackson Ferris were placed on the Development List while the Dodgers optioned Kyle Hurt and Josue De Paula to the Comets and activated Emmet Sheehan.
