Whistlers Sneak By Gangsters, 6-5
Boston second baseman Jeff Beeson played a vital role in his team's 6-5 conquest of Chicago. He went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Boston. The winner was Dusty Thomas in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Keith Kramer took the loss. Boston goes to 93-68, Chicago to 64-97.

The game was decided with no one out in the bottom of the ninth. With Boston trailing 5-4, Beeson jumped on a fastball from fireballing right-hander Keith Kramer and hit a 2-run home run to left. With one swing, the Whistlers had a walk-off win.

"We scored enough runs to win," said Beeson.
