The Brooklyn Bluebirds trumped the Washington Eagles, 7-5, at Monument Field. Brooklyn right fielder Jackie Cooper was terrific. He went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Jorge Sandoval got the win, improving to 8-3. He worked 8.2 innings, giving up 5 runs on 15 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 1. The save went to Bob Hill, his 13th this season.

With Brooklyn leading 3-1 in the top of the fifth, Cooper hit a changeup from Alex Fonseca for a 2-run home run. It was his 9th home run of the season and put the Bluebirds ahead, 5-1.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Cooper told the Brooklyn Daily. "It's as simple as that."

Brooklyn raised its record to 42-30 with the win.
