Gold Sox Win at Brooklyn, 7-4
With second baseman Noel Ballard leading the charge, the Chicago Gold Sox defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers, 7-4, at Ebbetts Field. Ballard, who is tied for 3rd in the 3L in bases on balls with 22, was 2-4 with 2 singles and a walk. He drove in 3 runs. The winner was Kenshin Koike, who threw 88 pitches over 5.1 innings. The right-hander was charged with 3 runs on 6 hits. Chris Rogers finished the game for Chicago and earned his 6th save.

Eddie Flynn helped his team jump on top from the get-go. His first time up in the top of the first, he cranked a 2-run single to give Chicago a 2-0 lead.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Chicago manager Brett Reichert.

The Dodgers have now dropped 5 straight.
