Raucous Knickerbocker Stadium Crowd Propels Knickerbockers to 4-2 Victory; Series Tied at 1
Jose Espinoza went the distance at Knickerbocker Stadium today to drag the New York Knickerbockers back to parity with the Cincinnati Packers. The right-handed Espinoza needed 122 pitches to get through the complete game effort, which the Knickerbockers won, 4-2. The clubs are now tied 1-1 in the best-of-7 series.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Victor Rojas came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Cincinnati pitcher Marv Traber, he hit a 2-0 fastball for a 2-run double. It was a game-changer, putting New York on top, 4-2.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said New York manager William Bowen.

Game 3 is scheduled for Friday at Roman Arena in Cincinnati.
