Bluebirds Slap 6-4 Loss on Kansas City
The Brooklyn Bluebirds beat the Kansas City Bulls, 6-4, at Independence Field. The win was due in part to left fielder Greg Landrum, who went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. The win lifted the Brooklyn record to 66-63.

With Brooklyn leading 3-0 in the top of the fourth, Landrum hit a fastball from Dennis Greenlee for a 2-run home run. It was his 15th home run of the season and put the Bluebirds ahead, 5-0.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Landrum.
