Minutemen Suffer 7-1 Home Loss
Boston Minutemen pitcher Don Griffin was in fine form, leading his team past the Pittsburgh Miners, 7-1. Griffin picked up the win for Boston, going 7.2 innings. He gave up 1 run on 8 hits. He now sports a record of 13-3. The Federal Association-leading Minutemen have a record of 61-34.

Leon Wallace had a big 2-run home run for the Minutemen in the top of the third inning. With Boston trailing 1-0 and a runner on 2nd, he sized up a fastball from 27-year old left-handed pitcher Ed Power and punished it. The result was his 10th home run of the season, which put the Minutemen on top, 2-1.

"Don looked like he had more finish on his ball," said Boston manager Harry Barrell.
