Cincinnati left-hander John Stoddard pitched his team to victory over the Cleveland Bobcats at Lakefront Stadium. The final score was 3-1. The winner was Stoddard. He threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Joe Clabaugh. Terry Stallings got the save, his 3rd in 3 chances.

Ron Brown, who won the Rookie of the Year Award in 1968, had a direct impact on the outcome. Brown contributed a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to put Cincinnati up, 3-1.

"It was a good effort all around," said Stoddard.

The 6th-place Packers are now 68-87, the Bobcats 79-77.
