Knights Strike Out

The movie version of The Natural concludes with a game-winning home run for the New York Knights. But, in the book version, their season ends with a strike out.

Unfortunately, for the New York Knights of the U.S. Chess League, their semifinal match on Wednesday night followed the book and not the movie, as they were eliminated from the postseason by the Boston Blitz. The Knights lost the match by a score of 1-2-1.
