Packers Bridle Bluebirds, 3-2
Cincinnati Packers starter Art Ledington turned in a top-notch performance against the Brooklyn Bluebirds at Roman Arena. The result was a win for the Packers, 3-2. The setback makes Brooklyn 40-42.

Glen Bennett had a big 2-run double for the Packers in the bottom of the fifth inning. With Cincinnati leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a changeup from Antonio Valerio, the 13th overall pick in the 1974 draft, and swatted a double to left-center. It was his 11th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Packers ahead, 3-0.

"It's a mindset," said Ledington. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
