Forbes Homers Twice in 7-5 Sailors Win
The Philadelphia Sailors topped the Brooklyn Kings by the score of 7-5, with the biggest share of the credit going to center fielder Billy Forbes. Forbes was 3-5 with 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for the Sailors on the day. Charlie Gordon earned the win for Philadelphia. He lasted 6 innings, allowing 4 runs on 9 hits, while striking out 1. With the win, he raised his record to 3-1. Joe Hess recorded the save, his 7th.

Ed Reyes, the 12-year veteran , had a direct impact on the outcome. Reyes contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fifth inning to put Philadelphia up, 5-4.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Philadelphia manager Ernie Sprenkle.

Philadelphia, now 16-10, has gotten their season off to a good start.
