Bluebirds Get Past St. Louis for 4-3 Win
The Brooklyn Bluebirds picked up a win at Flatbush Park, topping the St. Louis Explorers, 4-3. On the mound for Brooklyn was left-hander Dave Gaultney. He played a principal role in the triumph. The loss makes St. Louis 61-65.

The game was at a stalemate until catcher Jimmy Mara came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing St. Louis pitcher Alex Alonso, he hit a first pitch sinker for a 2-run single. It was a game-changer, putting Brooklyn on top, 4-2.

"I just tried to focus on getting that first guy out every inning," said Gaultney.
