Down to Defeat Goes Brooklyn, 9-7
The New York Knickerbockers defeated the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 9-7. Shortstop Dwayne Lamons deserved a large share of the credit. Lamons went 2 for 5 with a home run. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Knickerbockers. The winner in relief was Wayne Houston. He is now 1-0. The right-hander allowed no runs on 4 hits in 2 innings. Ollie Hundley locked down his 6th save.

In the top of the seventh, the Knickerbockers grabbed the lead when Lamons hit his 3rd home run of the season. The 3-run home run off Dave Norman made it 8-7, New York.

"You start putting runs on the board and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Lamons.

The setback makes the Bluebirds 6-9.
