On Friday, August 23, 1935, in another diamond tussle featuring brother versus brother, Max Rosner's Bushwick nine outduels Joe Rosner's Bay Parkway Dukes at Dexter Park. With the victory, Bushwick takes a 3-2 lead in the season series.
Rube Chambers is called upon to make a last-minute start for Bushwick as Jim Duffy arrives at Dexter Park an inning late. Bay Parkway takes full advantage by pushing across the game's opening run. Otherwise, Duffy takes over slab duties in the second and is opposed by local Long Island University product Al Morris for the Dukes in a familiar match-up.
Once settled in, Jim Duffy proceeds to toss seven scoreless innings. Meanwhile, Bushwick takes a slim lead with single runs in the fifth and sixth innings. But the Dukes pick up Al Morris with the game-tying run in the visitor's ninth.
With one out and runners on the corners in the home tenth, right fielder Sol Mishkin's hit delivers home center fielder Al Moore (triple) with the game-winning run.
Despite 13 strikeouts and largely undone by misplays in the field, Al Morris allows three runs on 13 hits and three walks for the loss. Jim Duffy allows one late run on eight hits and no walks with two strikeouts for the win.
