Late Rally by Minutemen Secures 5-2 Win
Boston Minutemen starter Ray Gonyea hurled his team past the Chicago Chiefs, 5-2. Gonyea yielded 2 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 4, and struck out 6. His record improves to 6-10. The Minutemen are now 41-52, while the Chiefs fall to 47-41.

Had Don Richmond not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Richmond hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Minutemen.

Gonyea called the win "a pick-me-upper."
