Whales Score Late, Upend Kings, 7-2
Brooklyn Whales starter Walter Fain found his groove in his team's 7-2 win over the New York Kings. Fain, who is on pace to win 19 games this season, went the distance for Brooklyn. He gave up 2 runs on 7 hits. The win for the Whales lifted their record to 67-53.

Brooklyn used the timely hitting of Slick Spackman to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Whales on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning never gets dull," said Spackman.
