New York Slaps 6-2 Loss on Brooklyn
Starting pitcher Ron Haney was a major factor in the 6-2 New York Knickerbockers triumph over the Brooklyn Bluebirds. With the victory, the Knickerbockers record stands at 77-83.

New York won the game in part because of Bob Underwood. The right fielder ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Knickerbockers ahead, 2-0. For the game, Underwood had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't get the results that we wanted," said Brooklyn skipper John Meeker.
