The Washington Eagles outlasted the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 8-7, in 10 innings. Washington shortstop Gary Long stood out with his performance. He went 2 for 4 with 2 singles and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Washington reliever Miguel Jimenez was the winner. His record is now 1-1. Dave Norman took the loss. With the loss, Brooklyn falls to 11-11.

Jeff Lawler drove in one run for Washington. The 27-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the tenth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Dave Norman. It was his 9th RBI of the season.

"What we get, we earn," Long told the Washington Herald.
