What an exciting, dramatic game as the Boston Americans (28-24) used a 9th inning double from Jesse Hoffmeister to get the walk-off win over the visiting Chicago White Sox (23-29) by a 1 to 0 score.

This was a battle between two dominant pitching performances. In the end, Sam Leever (7-5) picked up the victory by limiting the opposition to just 5 hits in the 104-pitch shutout win; Game Score 80. Take the loss was Bill Phillips (6-7) after he allowed 1 earned run on 4 hits and 1 walk; Game Score 73.

Despite limited offense today, Jesse Hoffmeister's pinch-hit effort (1 for 1, Double, RBI) is noteworthy. For the White Sox, Duke Farrell (3 for 3) played well.

Player of the Game: Sam Leever (Season: #6 / Career: #42)
