Bluebirds Collect 4-3 Win Over Eagles
The Brooklyn Bluebirds wiggled past the Washington Eagles, 4-3, in 12 innings at Flatbush Park. The win was highlighted by the performance of Brooklyn pitcher Dave Gaultney. Dave Norman, who is tied for 3rd in the NBL in saves with 16, was the winner in relief. His record is now 3-6. The losing pitcher was Bruce Grossman. Brooklyn has now won 4 straight.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 12th inning, when Brooklyn first baseman Ron Freeman, facing Bruce Grossman, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Bluebirds the 4-3 win.

"If you chase it, you need to get it," said Brooklyn skipper John Meeker.
