Phil Niekro pitched a complete game as the Cincinnati Royalty outscored the
Pittsburgh Bichipoos 8 to 1.

Cincinnati drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning
scoring 3 runners on 3 hits.  That early run support was all that
Niekro(14-6) required.  Cincinnati had 12 hits for the night.  

Doug Rau(7-8) was charged with the loss.  He was unable to control the
Cincinnati offense and allowed 12 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings.
