Whistlers Earn Win with Late Rally
The Boston Whistlers overcame a good performance by Syracuse second baseman Alex Cruz to knock off Syracuse, 5-4, in 13 innings at Whislters Park. Cruz went 5 for 6 with 5 singles. The winner in relief was John Salgado. The left-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 3 innings. He now owns a record of 1-2. Boston goes to 76-65. The win puts them 14 games up in their division.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the 13th inning, when Boston second baseman Jeff Beeson, facing Dave Holzman, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Whistlers the 5-4 win.

"This game was intense," Beeson said, postgame.
