Packers Win Nail-Biter
The Cincinnati Packers took Rick Tomlinson's best shot and still were able to collect a win at Lakefront Stadium. The final score had Cincinnati getting past the Bobcats, 3-2, in 10 innings. Tomlinson over 7 innings allowed 1 run on 3 hits, while striking out 3. The winner in relief was Brian Alfieri. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 3-2. Cincinnati, with the win, sits at 24-60.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Billy Muhammad? The 27-year old second baseman Muhammad stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put Cincinnati up, 3-2. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.

Muhammad said his team "played with focus."
