Eagles Deal Packers 4-2 Loss
The Cincinnati Packers could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Art Ledington into a win. Instead, the Washington Eagles prevailed, 4-2. Ledington threw 8.0 innings of 5-hit ball. The Packers fall to 8-12 and continue their unimpressive start to the 1977 season.

Gary Long provided a timely hit. The Washington shortstop delivered a 2-run triple in the top of the tenth inning to put the Eagles on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in the game, but he made it count.

Long attributed the win to "everyone pulling their weight."
