Greg Landrum did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Brooklyn Bluebirds from being beaten, 7-3, to the New York Knickerbockers at Flatbush Park. Landrum was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs. The winner was Danny Abril, who threw 105 pitches over 6.2 innings. The right-hander was charged with 2 runs on 6 hits. The win puts New York at 29-25 this season.

New York used the hitting of Dwayne Lamons to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Knickerbockers on top, 5-1. For the game, Lamons had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Nice win for us," said Lamons. "Now we'll go after the next one."
