Knickerbockers Pull Out Late Win, 5-4
The Knickerbockers grabbed a win, 5-4, at Knickerbocker Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from Cincinnati pitcher Rich Pedersen. Pedersen went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs. Brian Williams picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 8-8. Corey Spencer suffered the loss. The loss makes Cincinnati 50-71.

Bob Underwood drove in one run for New York. The 26-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Corey Spencer. It was his 34th RBI of the season.

"It was a good effort all around," said Underwood.
