TEAM RISP- Bridegrooms: 4 for 14  Giants: 7 for 15

First baseman Jake Beckley slammed 2 homeruns and Jouett Meekin tossed a
complete game as the New York Giants clobbered the outmatched Brooklyn
Bridegrooms, 21 to 3.

Beckley really 'lit it up' for New York.  He delivered a base-hit in the 2nd
inning, bombed a two-run dinger in the 4th inning and hit a 'grand salami' to
the delight of his teammates in the 8th inning.  New York bats were hot in
the 7th inning which saw them score 5 runs on 3 hits and the 8th inning which
saw them plate 6 runs on 6 hits.  New York banged out 18 hits on the
afternoon.  

Meekin(19-5) lasted until the end allowing 3 runs for the win. George
Harper(3-5) ended up with the loss.  He allowed 11 hits and 4 walks in 6
innings.
