The Cleveland Bobcats withstood a fine game by Philadelphia left fielder Jeff Murchison at Quakers Stadium, to upend the Quakers, 4-3. Murchison went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Joe Clabaugh got the save, the 7th for him this season. Cleveland is 29-24 and Philadelphia, with the loss, 21-31.

Cleveland relied on the hitting of Phil Chirico to pick up the win. The left fielder ripped a run-scoring triple in the top of the ninth inning to put the Bobcats on top, 4-2. For the game, Chirico had 1 triple and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It never gets old," said Chirico. "Winning, that is."
