Extra-Inning Walk-Off Win for Terriers
The Terriers earned a hard-fought, 3-1 win in 11 innings at Atlantic Avenue Grounds. To do so required withstanding a fine effort from New York pitcher Jack Neenan. Neenan went 7 innings and allowed 1 run. Boston reliever David Juarez snagged the win, upping his record to 7-7. Tom Duncan shouldered the loss. The first-place Empires now sit at 59-41.

Boston got a knockout punch from Preston Lee. The third baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the bottom of the 11th inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This place sure got loud," said Phil Palapa, the Boston manager.
