From the desk: DEM BARNSTORMERS
On Sunday, May 17, 1936, in front of 9,000 fans at Dexter Park, the host Bushwicks defeat the Brooklyn Royal Giants. Starter Jim Duffy and Charlie Perkins join together in limiting the Royal Giants to a pair of runs on six hits and three walks with three strikeouts for the victory. For the Royal Giants, Carter surrenders eight hits over five innings; Farrell walks one and strikes out three in relief. But the Bushwicks make no distinction with nine total runs on 15 hits. Only a few of the top Brooklyn Royal Giants' regulars appear in this match, first baseman Ed Rile, center fielder Pete Washington, and catcher Joe Lewis, among them.
