Bluebirds, Cooper Blast Packers, 10-1
The Brooklyn Bluebirds defeated the Cincinnati Packers by the score of 10-1, with the biggest share of the credit going to right fielder Jackie Cooper. Cooper was 4 for 5 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 4 for the Bluebirds on the day. The winning pitcher was Dave Gaultney. He tossed 93 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 1 run on 3 hits. The Packers, now 6-14, continue their sluggish start.

Bob Rawlins drove in one run for Brooklyn. The two-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Fernando Lopez. It was his 15th RBI of the season.

"I feel like a little kid every time I put the uniform on," said Cooper.
