Gothams Score Late to Nip Minutemen, 3-2
New York Gothams starter Gus Tropeano pitched his team past the Boston Minutemen, 3-2, in 10 innings. Boston's current losing streak has reached 5 games.

The decisive blow was delivered by Ed Davis in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 26-year old left-handed pitcher Walt Portelli to win the game for New York. The home crowd went nuts.

Said Davis: "It's just one win, but it feels like more when you outlast a tough opponent."
