Cey, Brooklyn Open Div Strong with 7-6 Win
The Brooklyn Royal Giants started the Divisional Playoffs in style, downing the visiting Houston Colt 45s at Ebbets Field by a score of 7-6 to grab an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Royal Giants third baseman Ron Cey was 2 for 4 with 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice.

Cey had a consequential at-bat in the bottom of the first for the Royal Giants. Coming up with runners on 1st and 2nd and Brooklyn trailing 1-0, he hit a 3-run home run.

"We're happy," Cey told reporters after the win. "When you're in the playoffs, you've got to treat every game like it could be your last."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn.
