The rain made it unbearable at times; nonetheless, the faithful who endured the elements enjoyed themselves.

Don Calise made an impact in the 10-3 Brooklyn win over Washington. Calise went 3-5 with 2 home runs and a double, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. The Bluebirds sit in 4th place in the National Baseball League Eastern Division with a record of 46-37.

In the bottom of the eighth, the Bluebirds grabbed the lead when Calise hit his 7th home run of the season. The solo home run off Pedro Nunez made it 3-2, Brooklyn.

"It's always great to put the barrel on the ball and contribute," said Calise.
