Minutemen Get Hard-Earned Win
The Boston Minutemen had to overcome a big game from St. Louis catcher Sam Ruggles to leave Minuteman Stadium with a victory. And they did, winning, 6-5. Ruggles was 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Boston reliever Bob Hollister snagged the win, upping his record to 8-12. John Gibson shouldered the loss. The 8th-place Minutemen sport a record of 54-66.

Boston took the lead, 6-5, on Bill Newhall's 10th home run of the season. The 2-run home run came off St. Louis pitcher John Gibson in the bottom of the eighth.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Newhall told the Boston Observer. "It's as simple as that."
