The Brooklyn Royal Giants got a rain-soaked win over the Birmingham Black Barons.

The Brooklyn Royal Giants beat the Birmingham Black Barons, 9-3, at Rickwood Field. The Royal Giants got a fine performance from third baseman Ron Cey, who went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Fernando Valenzuela got the win, improving to 2-1. He pitched 7 innings, giving up 3 hits and 1 run, while striking out 7 and walking 2.

Brooklyn won the game in part because of Duke Snider. The designated hitter ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royal Giants ahead, 5-0. For the game, Snider had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"We were able to put some runs on the board," said Snider after the game.

The win puts Brooklyn at 21-15 this season.
