Brahmins Sneak By Clippers, 3-2
Boston Brahmins starter Peter Gates led his team to victory over the Cleveland Clippers, 3-2. The right-hander was locked-in. In 9 innings, Gates surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 5. He allowed 2 runs. The Brahmins now have a record of 11-23.

The game was all tied up in the bottom of the eighth, until Gates delivered big-time for Boston, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Weldon Skinner. The game-changing hit put the Brahmins on top, 3-2.

"Main thing is I want the team to win," Gates told a reporter after the game. "Just have to go out there, take care of my job, and give my team a chance to win."
