| Boston Wins, 2-1, in Extra Innings | The Boston Minutemen wiggled past the New York Gothams, 2-1, at Minuteman Stadium. The win was highlighted by the performance of Boston pitcher Hank Springer. The win was credited to 24-year old right-handed pitcher Les Snyder in relief. His record improves to 1-3. Jim Walton took the loss. The Gothams, at 65-75, have lost 5 straight games.
In the bottom of the tenth, Frank Borgen knew he could end it with one good swing of the bat. And he did, hitting a run-scoring single off New York pitcher Jim Walton.
"It was a tough night at the plate," said New York manager Charlie Foley. | |
