Royal Giants Rough Up Gothams, 8-3
The Brooklyn Royal Giants got their 2001 Whirled Baseball season off to a good start, defeating the New York Gothams, 8-3. Duke Snider set the pace. He slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Don Drysdale got the win, improving to 1-0. He held the Gothams to 3 runs on 6 hits over 7.2 innings, while striking out 6 and walking 2.

With Brooklyn leading 1-0 in the bottom of the first, Snider hit a curveball from Christy Mathewson for a 3-run home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Royal Giants ahead, 4-0.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Snider.
