The Cincinnati Packers knocked off the New York Knickerbockers, 12-5, at Roman Arena. Larry Beckman hit 2 singles and 2 doubles, while driving in 2 runs. The Knickerbockers fall to 5-8 and continue their unimpressive start to the 1976 season.

With two out in the bottom of the first, Jerry Anderson put Cincinnati in front, 2-0, with a 2-run single. The Packers went on to win the ballgame.

"Every manager loves to see an offensive outburst from his team," said Cincinnati skipper Martin Abresch.
