Bobcats Rally to Nose Past Cincinnati
The Cleveland Bobcats got a good effort from starter Roger Scherf in defeating the Cincinnati Packers at Lakefront Stadium. The final score was 2-1. Cleveland reliever Pat Burkholder picked up the win to move to 9-9. Erv Koenig suffered the loss. The Cleveland win streak is now 3 games.

Cleveland got a knockout punch from Phil Chirico. The left fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Cleveland manager Daniel Mays.
