Boston Collects 6-1 Win
Antonio Higuera was nothing short of phenomenal for the Boston Whistlers. The 37-year-old right-hander was a big reason his team beat the Austin Desperados, 6-1. The winner was Higuera. He threw 8.2 innings of 7-hit ball. The loser was J.R. Mitchell. Boston is now 72-52.

The Whistlers picked up the win with a combination of good hitting and good pitching.

"When Antonio is in the zone, it's kind of like -- good luck," said Boston manager Mike Plocher.
