The Boston Whistlers routed the Chicago Gangsters, 12-2, at Whislters Park. Rich Cloutier, who is tied for 7th in the AC in triples with 6, was one of the hitting stars. He went 4 for 5 with a home run, a triple, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for Boston. The American Conference Central Division-leading Whistlers have a record of 92-69.

Evan Stowe had a big 3-run home run for the Whistlers in the bottom of the third inning. With Boston leading 3-1 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he sized up a fastball from 29-year old right-handed pitcher Elias Tapia and punished it. The result was his 13th home run of the season, which put the Whistlers on top, 6-1.

"We took a roundhouse punch to the chin," said losing manager Antonio Valdez.
