Eagles Spoil Opening Day for Bluebirds, Their Fans
Flatbush Park was the site of the home opener for the Brooklyn Bluebirds. The contest featured a prime matchup between Arnold Jarry of the visiting Washington Eagles and Damon Rutherford of the Bluebirds. The final score was 2-1, the Eagles getting the win. Arnold Jarry turned in the best performance. The winning pitcher was Jarry, now 1-0. He tossed 7 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 5.

Ed Laub, the 23-year old center fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Laub contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the second inning to put Washington up, 2-0.

Jarry attributed the win to his team's "hyper resolve."
