Bluebirds Knock Off Denver, 8-5
The Brooklyn Bluebirds beat the Denver Burros, 8-5, at Gates Crescent Park. Brooklyn left fielder Greg Landrum had an outstanding performance. He went 2-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. The winner was Brooklyn reliever Frank D'Amico, now 1-0. The loser was Tom Reid. Tom Keller earned the save, his 2nd, for the Bluebirds.

Had Billy Jo Anderson not delivered a key base hit in the top of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Anderson hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Bluebirds.

Brooklyn manager John Meeker was pleased with the team's effort. "Our guys went out there and put good wood on the ball," he said.

The Bluebirds improved their record to 36-23 with the win over Denver.
