Chicago Breezes to 13-2 Win
Chicago right fielder Rod Shearer was a significant contributor in his team's 13-2 triumph over the Boston Minutemen. He was 3-5 with a double and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 3 for the Chiefs. Picking up the win was Vern Osborne. He went 8 innings, allowing no runs on 6 hits. The left--hander struck out 2 and walked 2. Chicago now sits at 57-48, while Boston falls to 47-62.

The game turned with no one out in the bottom of the fourth when Shearer hit a run-scoring single. It thrust the Chiefs into the lead, 1-0.

"They took us to the woodshed," said Boston manager Harry Barrell.
