Royal Giants Beat Grays, 7-3
Brooklyn beat Homestead on the strength of starting pitcher Don Drysdale's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 7-3. In 7 innings, Drysdale surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 1. He allowed 3 runs. The win has Brooklyn at 16-13.

Ray Dandridge had a big 3-run home run for the Royal Giants in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Brooklyn leading 2-0 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a changeup from Bob Friend, who is tied for 8th in the NL with a 8.9 K/9 rate, and swatted a home run to left. It was his 2nd home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royal Giants ahead, 5-0.

"I try to not think too much," said Dandridge.
