Lamons Helps Knickerbockers Beat Bobcats, 8-3
Dwayne Lamons was a vital contributor to the 8-3 New York victory over Cleveland. The Knickerbockers shortstop went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The win for the Knickerbockers lifted their record to 43-43.

Starting Pitcher Dave Torre made an impact for New York, when he swatted a 3-run home run off Myron Baird in the top of the second. For the contest, Torre threw 6.2 innings allowing 3 runs.

"I was just going up there trying to see good pitches, that was about it," said Lamons.
