Knickerbockers Top Cleveland, 4-3
The New York Knickerbockers did just enough to secure a victory over the Cleveland Bobcats, 4-3, at Lakefront Stadium. Nobody did more than pitcher Chris Hull. Tim McGovern recorded his 1st save for New York. The Knickerbockers improve their record to 75-79 with the win over Cleveland.

New York used a timely hit from Luis Benitez to get the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Knickerbockers ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Hull.
