Packers Lose By a Run at Cleveland
Roger Scherf, who led the NBL in wins with 21 last year, had a strong outing for the Cleveland Bobcats against the Cincinnati Packers at Lakefront Stadium. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 4-3 win. The winner was Scherf. He threw 6.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Chris Montgomery. The Packers drop to 7-8 and continue their mediocre start to the 1971 season.

Scherf had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth to put Cleveland in front, 4-2. With runners on 1st and 3rd, he hit a sacrifice fly off Cincinnati pitcher Chris Montgomery.

"I'm happy we won," said Scherf. "That's first and foremost. My goal is for the team to win the day I pitch, however it's done."
