Bluebirds Win, Now 17-8
The Brooklyn Bluebirds grabbed a win, 5-2, over the St. Louis Explorers at Flatbush Park. Brooklyn second baseman Dave Tislow went 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Picking up the win was Tom Keller. He went 8.1 innings, allowing 2 runs on 7 hits. The right--hander struck out 4 and walked 5. Bob Hill recorded the save for Brooklyn, his 4th of the season.

With Brooklyn trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the third, Tislow hit a 2-run single off St. Louis hurler Jimmy Trent. It was the 25th hit of the season for Tislow and put his team ahead, 2-1.

"I told our guys, 'Runs don't score by themselves,'" said Tislow. "You need someone to get on base and someone to drive them in."

The Bluebirds, now 17-8, have played some good baseball in the early going.
