Washington Loses, 7-3, in 15
The Brooklyn Bluebirds beat the Washington Eagles, 7-3, in 15 innings. Brooklyn pitcher and Cuba, native Jorge Sandoval led the way. Dave Norman picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 2-6. Morris Rice, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 1974 draft, was tagged with the loss. The Brooklyn win streak is now 3 games.

Brooklyn took advantage of an error in the top of the 15th inning. The game was tied, 3-3, when John Huston hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Bluebirds in front, 4-3.

"I'm a bit of a clubhouse prankster," said Huston. "But it's all business when we're on the field."
