Brooklyn beat Washington in a rain-soaked ballgame.

The 9-4 Brooklyn win over Washington was due largely to Jackie Cooper. The Bluebirds right fielder was 4 for 5 with a triple and 3 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. The 4th-place Bluebirds now have a record of 29-27.

Brooklyn won the game in part because of Ron Freeman. The first baseman ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Bluebirds ahead, 3-0. For the game, Freeman had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"It feels good, just a great win all around," Freeman said after the game.
