The Milwaukee Dairymen reigned over the Cincinnati Packers in damp conditions.

The Milwaukee Dairymen dealt the Cincinnati Packers a 6-5 loss at Milwaukee Municipal Stadium. Larry Morford was the star on offense. He was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Pete Costabile got credit for the win, improving to 1-1. He allowed 1 run on 2 hits in 2 innings.

Barry Gunn was the walk-off hero for Milwaukee. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Dairymen third baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning is hard sometimes," said Dairymen manager Brandon Dudley. "This one was nice to get."

The Packers, at 28-50, have lost 6 straight games.
