Brooklyn Edges New York, 2-1
The Brooklyn Bluebirds and New York Knickerbockers put on a pitchers' duel.

New York wasted a solid 7-inning effort from starting pitcher Danny Abril, losing to Brooklyn, 2-1, at Flatbush Park. Bill Keiser notched the win in relief. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.2 innings. His record now sits at 2-0. Bob Hill was credited with the save for Brooklyn, his 2nd of the season.

The Bluebirds got a big at-bat from first baseman John Seidler. For the game, Seidler was 1-4 with a home run. In the bottom of the sixth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 2nd home run of the season gave Brooklyn a 2-1 lead.

"I was a little disappointed," said New York manager Timothy Widholm. "We could've and should've scored more runs."

Brooklyn goes to 2-1 with the win.
