Brooklyn won the game in the bottom of the tenth inning. With one out and Andy Luce on the mound for Kansas City, pinch hitter John Seidler hit a dramatic solo home run, bringing Bluebirds fans to their feet.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Brooklyn manager John Meeker. "It's usually not just one thing."
