The New York Knickerbockers defeated the Cincinnati Packers, 24-5, at Roman Arena. New York first baseman Francisco Chavez had a superb performance. He was 2 for 4 with a home run and 3 walks. He scored 4 runs and drove in 3. The triumph puts New York at 89-70 for the season.

New York used the hitting of Ron Freeman to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Knickerbockers on top, 8-4. For the game, Freeman had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"It was great to come out and swing the bats," Chavez told the New York News.
