Packers Upend Bluebirds, 5-3
The Cincinnati Packers beat the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 5-3, at Flatbush Park. The win was due in part to left fielder Lee McGee, who was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Cincinnati is now 21-32, Brooklyn 28-25.

Cincinnati pitcher Damon Rutherford contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a run-scoring single. It was his 8th hit of the season and put the Packers ahead, 1-0.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," McGee told the Cincinnati Bulletin.
