Cincinnati Decked, 6-2, by Knickerbockers
New York Knickerbockers starter Dario Fontanez hurled his team past the Cincinnati Packers, 6-2. The win makes New York 56-60.

Javier Guerra, who led the ABL in stolen bases with 54 in 1975, helped out the New York cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring hit-by-pitch. For the game, the left fielder was 1 for 3 with a walk and was hit by a pitch.

"At least I did my job," Fontanez said.
