Bluebirds Jolt Eagles, 5-2, with Late Rally
The Brooklyn Bluebirds picked up a win at Flatbush Park, knocking off the Washington Eagles, 5-2. Starting pitcher Jackie Richardson played a key role in the triumph. Brooklyn reliever Bob Hill picked up the win. Richie Kingery, who is the 2nd-best prospect in the Eagles organization, took the loss for Washington. The Eagles, now 5-15, continue their slow start.

Bob Hill dealt the Eagles a blow in the bottom of the eighth. Batting with the bases loaded and Brooklyn leading 3-2, Hill, who finished 5th in the NBL in saves with 22 last year, hit a first pitch changeup for a 2-run single.

"Feels good to get the job done," Richardson said after the game.
