Minutemen Fall to Chiefs Late
The Boston Minutemen got a superb performance from second baseman Marshall Thomas, but the Chicago Chiefs still won the game, 12-11. Thomas was 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 6 runs and scored once. At 49-41, Chicago is in third place in the Federal Association.

Chicago got a knockout punch from Pete Casstevens. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This place was rockin'," said Casstevens.
