Keystones Rally to Win, 3-2
The Philadelphia Keystones defeated the Boston Minutemen, 3-2. Left Fielder Jake Butler deserved a large share of the credit. Butler was 1 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Keystones. Van Taylor, who finished 4th in the FA in saves with 23 in 1967, was the winner in relief. His record is now 1-0. The losing pitcher was Walt Portelli. The loss makes Boston 5-6.

The Keystones got a clutch hit from second baseman Ed Walter. In the bottom of the tenth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Keystones.

Butler called the win a testament to his team's "tenacity."
