Boston Downed, 4-1, by Suns
Heinie Schmidt, who is tied for 9th in the FA in quality starts with 10, was locked in. The right-hander led the Los Angeles Suns to a 4-1 win against the Boston Minutemen at Minuteman Stadium. At 38-22, Los Angeles is in first place in the Federal Association West.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for George Whaley? The three-time All-Star Whaley stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put Los Angeles up, 1-0. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"You try to throw strikes and keep the game within reach," said Schmidt.
