Clippers Rally to Win
The Baltimore Clippers did just enough to secure a victory over the Boston Minutemen, 3-2, in 10 innings at Patapsco Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Buck Guthrie. Baltimore reliever Roy Wheeler picked up the win, raising his record to 1-0. Richie Thornton was tagged with the loss. Baltimore is now 36-34, Boston 22-45.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the tenth inning, when Baltimore center fielder Harry Simmons, facing Richie Thornton, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Clippers the 3-2 win.

"We busted our tails," said Boston manager Dode Edwards. "But we came up short."
