Bluebirds Snatch Late-Game, 6-5 Win
Brooklyn beat Washington at Flatbush Park, eking out a 6-5 win. The win was due in large part to third baseman Bob Rawlins. He went 4 for 5 with 4 singles. He scored 2 times. Tom Keller was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Bob Viola. The Bluebirds bumped their record to 45-37 with this win.

Lenny Winter was the walk-off hero for Brooklyn. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bluebirds second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place was rockin'," Rawlins said.
