Chavez has 3 hits to Light Knickerbockers Fuse
The New York Knickerbockers topped the Cleveland Bobcats, 12-3, with first baseman Francisco Chavez playing a big role. Chavez was 3 for 5 with a home run, 2 doubles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 4 for the Knickerbockers in the win. The Bobcats, at 57-74, have lost 5 in a row.

With no one out in the top of the sixth, Chuck McCormick had a chance to do some damage. Cleveland was trailing 7-1, but had the bases loaded. McCormick came to the plate against Ray Schifsky, and hit a sacrifice fly. But it was not enough to complete a Cleveland comeback.
