Bluebirds Walk It Off for 78th Win of Season
New York wasted an exceptional performance by pitcher Jack Forbes, falling to the Brooklyn Bluebirds, 4-3. Forbes threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the losing team. New York's current losing streak is now 4 games.

Ron Freeman was the walk-off hero for Brooklyn. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Bluebirds pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"The crowd was raucous," said Freeman.
