Clippers Deal Minutemen 4-3 Loss
Hank Springer pitched well, but the Boston Minutemen still lost the game, falling, 4-3, to the Baltimore Clippers at Minuteman Stadium. Jose Martinez earned the win for Baltimore. He lasted 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 9 hits, while striking out 2. With the win, he raised his record to 3-0. The defeat makes the Minutemen 7-14.

Baltimore used a well-timed hit by Hank Wallace to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Clippers ahead, 3-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

In postgame remarks, Wallace hailed his team's "single-minded focus."
