Cincinnati beat New York at Roman Arena, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to right fielder Jerry Anderson. He was 2-4 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. John Stoddard was the winner. Over 5.1 innings, he yielded 2 runs on 7 hits, with 4 walks and 1 strikeout. Art Ledington recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 3 for 5.

With Cincinnati leading 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Anderson hit a fastball from Jack Forbes for a 3-run home run. It was his 10th home run of the season and put the Packers ahead, 4-0.

"Even warm beer tastes good after a win," said Anderson.

The 5th-place Packers go to 53-70.
