Knickerbockers Upend Bluebirds, 6-3
New York and Brooklyn duked it out and the Knickerbockers came out victorious.

New York left fielder Diego Mateo helped his team beat the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 6-3. Mateo, the 22nd overall pick in the 1964 draft, went 2 for 4 for the Knickerbockers. Jack Forbes was the winning pitcher. Over 7.2 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 5 hits, with 3 walks and 2 strikeouts.

The Knickerbockers benefited from an error in the top of the sixth inning. New York was leading 3-1 when Jim Fulkerson hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put New York in front, 5-1.

"We've got a great group of guys," Mateo said, "and we're having fun right now."

The Bluebirds drop to 5-5 and continue their inconsistent start to the 1967 season.
