The New York Gothams withstood a fine game by Boston left fielder Dick Ward at Minuteman Stadium, to upend the Minutemen, 8-7. Ward was 3 for 4 with a triple, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Charlie Todd Jr. was credited with the save for New York, his 2nd of the season. New York is now 54-48.

Danny Horne broke a 6-6 tie in the top of the fifth with a run-scoring walk. It put the Gothams in front, 7-6. For the game, Horne came in in relief and pitched to 10 batters.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Horne told the New York Herald. "It's as simple as that."
