Briggs Slugs Royal Giants to 5-3 Win
A good performance from center fielder John Briggs helped the Brooklyn Royal Giants defeat the Ottawa Mounties, 5-3. Briggs went 3 for 5 with 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Royal Giants. Eric Gagne earned his 30th save in 35 chances. With the win, Brooklyn raised its record to 80-53.

The game was at a stalemate until second baseman Jackie Robinson came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Ottawa pitcher Clark Griffith, he hit a 0-2 changeup for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Brooklyn on top, 4-3.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Briggs.
