Terriers Hammered by Miller, Drop Game 6 to Traders
The Chicago Traders and the Boston Terriers will take the World Series to a decisive 7th game. In a must-win situation today, the Traders beat the Terriers 5-4 at Union Field to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Chicago second baseman Bob Miller was 2 for 3 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once.

The outcome might have been different had it not been for Miller. In the bottom of the seventh inning, when the Traders were trailing 3-1, Miller delivered a two-out 3-run home run for Chicago, giving his team the lead.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Chicago manager Winston Tinker.

Game 7 is set to be played tomorrow at Union Field. Slated to start are Bob Griffin for the Boston Terriers and Joe Shannon for the the Chicago Traders.
