Road Win Lifts Brooklyn to 1-0 Lead in World Series
The Brooklyn Bluebirds started the World's Series in dominant fashion today, blowing out the host Cincinnati Packers at Roman Arena by a score of 11-2 and securing an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Bluebirds right-hander Boyle Slocum was named player of the game after he threw 9 innings of 8-hit ball.

Chris Shaver hit a bases-clearing triple off Harvey Kelley in the top of the first, which put the Bluebirds in front, 3-0. Shaver had 2 singles, in addition to the triple. For the game, he went 3 for 5.

Shaver told a Brooklyn Gazette reporter that he was "more than satisfied" with the win.

Game 2 is scheduled for tomorrow. Slated to start are Edgar Blaney for Brooklyn and Roscoe Brockman for Cincinnati.
