Piazza Slugs Royal Giants to 9-3 Win
Behind the hitting of Mike Piazza, the Brooklyn Royal Giants stopped the New York Gothams, 9-3. Piazza went 4 for 5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice for the Royal Giants. The winning pitcher was 21-year old right-handed pitcher Don Drysdale. He tossed 102 pitches over 8 innings, allowing 3 runs on 5 hits. Brooklyn, at 38-30, is 2 games up in the National League Effa Manley Division.

With Brooklyn leading 1-0 in the top of the first, Piazza hit a fastball from Christy Mathewson for a solo home run. It was his 23rd home run of the season and put the Royal Giants ahead, 2-0.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Brooklyn manager Daniel Makonnen.
