Minutemen Get One-Run Win at Chicago
The Chicago Chiefs and Boston Minutemen provided some drama for the home crowd.

The 7-6 Boston win over Chicago was due in large part to Dick Ward. The Minutemen left fielder was 3-5 with 2 home runs. Johnny Hall got credit for the win, improving to 3-3. He allowed 5 runs on 7 hits in 5.2 innings. Picking up his 2nd save was 27-year old left-handed pitcher Walt Portelli.

Frank Borgen helped out the Boston cause in the top of the third inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the third baseman went 1-3.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Borgen.

The 5th-place Chiefs have dropped 4 straight games.
