Road Win Lifts Cincinnati to 1-0 Lead in World Series
Rufus How and the Cincinnati Packers opened the World's Series in brilliant fashion today, traveling to Brooklyn and shutting out the host Bluebirds at Avenue U Park 2-0 to secure an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. How, the Packers right-hander, was named player of the game as he threw 9 innings of shutout ball.

How, who was born in Lowville, New York, threw 101 pitches over 9 innings, while allowing no earned runs.

"We're happy," How told reporters after the win. "When you're in the playoffs, you've got to treat every game like it could be your last."

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow in Brooklyn. Slated to start are Elijah Graves for Cincinnati and Pinkney Bingham for Brooklyn.
