Starting pitcher Alex Fonseca was a major factor in the 6-2 Cincinnati Packers triumph over the Brooklyn Bluebirds. Fonseca, who finished 2nd in the NBL in innings pitched with 278.0 in 1975, went the distance for Cincinnati. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. Cincinnati goes to 38-44, Brooklyn to 40-43.

Stan Timmons, who is tied for 10th in the NBL in doubles with 22, took Brooklyn hurler Larry Mitchell deep in the bottom of the sixth. His 3-run home run put the Packers on top, 5-2. In all, Timmons had 1 single in addition to the home run, while going 2 for 5.

"Winning is always a team effort," Fonseca said after the game.
