Minutemen Use Late Surge to Win
The Boston Minutemen picked up a win at Gotham Stadium, knocking off the New York Gothams, 4-1. Starting pitcher Steve Miller was a big reason why. Miller picked up the win for Boston, going 7 innings. He gave up 1 run on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 4-7. Jack Thomas closed out the game, earning his 3rd save.

Jack Denis delivered a run-scoring double for Boston in the top of the eighth. The first baseman went 3 for 3 in the game, including 1 home run, 1 single, and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 2.

Miller pitched well, despite being a bit under the weather. "To be honest, I was sick before the game," he said. "Just a stomach bug."

Boston is now 65-84, while New York is 67-81.
