Drooping Packers Lose 6th Straight
The New York Knickerbockers got a stellar effort from pitcher Danny Abril, helping New York score a win over the visiting Cincinnati Packers, 5-2. The slumping Packers have lost 6 straight.

The decisive blow was delivered by Bob Underwood in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a 3-run home run off 23-year old right-handed pitcher Art Ledington to win the game for New York. The home crowd went nuts.

"We take it day by day here," said Underwood, "and today was a good one for us."
