New York Pins 7-3 Loss on Packers
Led by Bob Underwood, the New York Knickerbockers downed the Cincinnati Packers, 7-3. Underwood was 2 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for the Knickerbockers. Jack Forbes was the winner. He's now 11-5. The loser was 31-year old right-handed pitcher Dave Pelton. The last-place Packers have dropped 4 straight games.

New York won the game in part because of Rick Hotz. The catcher ripped a solo home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Knickerbockers ahead, 3-2. For the game, Hotz had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Knickerbockers manager Timothy Widholm.
