Minutemen Get Clutch Win Versus Pittsburgh | Minuteman Stadium was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Boston Minutemen and Pittsburgh Miners.
The Boston Minutemen picked up a win at Minuteman Stadium, knocking off the Pittsburgh Miners, 4-3. On the mound for Boston was left-hander Andy Logue. He played a key role in the triumph. Boston, at 32-54, sits in 9th place in the Federal Association.
The climactic moment came in the bottom of the ninth for Boston. That's when Sam Walker, who is a four-time All-Star, hit a run-scoring double off Clarence Miller to win the game. The home crowd erupted in celebration.
"This joint was rocking," said Logue. | |
