Bluebirds Win Thriller, 6-5
The Brooklyn Bluebirds overcame a good performance by Cincinnati shortstop Glen Bennett to knock off Cincinnati, 6-5, at Flatbush Park. Bennett went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Brooklyn has 4 straight wins, Cincinnati 3 straight losses.

Jimmy Mara was the walk-off hero for Brooklyn. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bluebirds catcher hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Cincinnati manager Martin Abresch. "The effort was great."
