With right-hander Orel Hershiser leading the charge, the Brooklyn Royal Giants got past the San Francisco Sea Lions, 8-5, in extra innings in Game 2 of the Whirled Series. Hershiser threw 6.0 innings of 5-hit ball at Oracle Park as Brooklyn managed to grab a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

The game was at a stalemate until second baseman Jackie Robinson came to bat in the top of the 12th. Facing San Francisco pitcher Tom Brewer, he hit a 0-1 curveball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Brooklyn on top, 6-5.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Brooklyn skipper Daniel Makonnen.

The next game is set to be played for Thursday, October 25th , 2001 at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn.
