Packers Lose, 8-3, to New York
New York second baseman Steve Wright made his presence felt in the 8-3 Knickerbockers triumph over the Cincinnati Packers. Wright went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks, while scoring 3. Chris Hull earned the win to go to 4-0. He allowed 2 runs on 5 hits, with 4 walks and 3 strikeouts in 6 innings of work. The Packers fall to 7-9 and continue their uneven start to the 1972 season.

New York shortstop Dwayne Lamons contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fourth. With two down, he hit a cutter to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 16th hit of the season and put the Knickerbockers ahead, 4-2.

Lamons attributed the win to his team's "determination."
