Boston Beats Dallas, 10-9
Runs were plentiful at Bluff Park.

The Dallas Wranglers got a superb performance from pinch hitter Lewis Smith, but the Boston Terriers still won the game, 10-9. Smith was 1-1 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Boston pitcher Bill Falcon got the win, upping his record to 1-4. Ken Morrison got the loss. John Morgan earned his 2nd save in 4 tries.

Boston used the timely hitting of Dick Breighner to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Terriers on top, 10-9. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"If you were looking for a pitchers' duel," said Breighner, "this wasn't it."

Boston is now 62-75, while Dallas is 70-67.
