  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Brooklyn Whales (55-47) 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 3 5 9 12 1
Richmond Rifles (48-55) 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 2 8 1
Fading Rifles Lose 7th Straight
Brooklyn Whales starter Walter Fain had all his pitches working at Libby Hill. His stellar performance paved the way for an easy 9-2 Brooklyn win over the Richmond Rifles. In 9 innings, Fain surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 1 and walking 3. He allowed 2 runs. The 7th-place Rifles have dropped 7 straight games.

Brooklyn took the lead, 3-2, on Slick Spackman's 8th triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Spackman hit in the top of the eighth, left Richmond pitcher Garrett Dixon crestfallen.

Brooklyn manager Marques Williams commended his team for "putting the pedal to the metal."
