New York Dispatched, 3-1, by Boston
The Boston Minutemen topped the New York Gothams, 3-1, in Federal Association action at Gotham Stadium. The game was highlighted by the performance of Boston pitcher Dick Wilson. Don Griffin earned the save for Boston, his 25th. The 6th-place Minutemen have a record of 69-85.

Boston took a 3-1 lead on Ray Harrison's 1st double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Harrison hit in the top of the ninth, left New York pitcher Chuck Kleiman visibly frustrated.

"Can't say enough about our pitching," said Harrison.
