Minutemen Capture Close Win
The Boston Minutemen beat the Washington Eagles, 8-7, at Minuteman Stadium. The Minutemen got a fine performance from right fielder Jim Morton, who went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Boston reliever Paul Sullivan was the winner. His record is now 1-0. Doc Lindley took the loss. The win takes Boston to 4-5.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With one out, Morton hit a fastball from Doc Lindley for a run-scoring single. The Minutemen, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"It wasn't a pretty victory," said Morton, "but we got it done."
