A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the New York Knickerbockers and Kansas City Bulls.

The New York Knickerbockers converted a terrific effort from starter Bruce Owen into a win over the Kansas City Bulls at Independence Field. The Knickerbockers won the game by a final score of 5-1. Owen picked up the win for New York, going 5.2 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 13-9.

New York relied on the hitting of Francisco Chavez to pick up the win. The first baseman ripped a 2-run triple in the top of the third inning to put the Knickerbockers on top, 4-1. For the game, Chavez had 1 triple and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"No time for flexing," said Chavez. "It's always one game at a time."

The Knickerbockers bumped their record to 64-61 with this latest triumph.
