Royal Giants Winners, 6-2, at Crosley Field
Brooklyn Royal Giants starter Orel Hershiser kept the Indianapolis ABCs hitters in check, leading his team to a comfortable 6-2 win. The winner was Hershiser. He threw 8.1 innings of 7-hit ball. The loser was Guy White. Eric Gagne was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 16 of 20 save opportunities.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for John Briggs? The Brooklyn center fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royal Giants on top, 1-0. For the game, Briggs had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Orel is tough when he's hitting his spots," said Brooklyn manager Daniel Makonnen.

With the victory, the Royal Giants upped their record to 40-31.
