The game was deadlocked at 5 after nine full innings. Boston won the hard fought contest in the 10th inning. After an out was recorded, Westlake tripled. Les Moss was next and he banged out a single resulting in an exciting win for Boston and a raucous post-game celebration by the home town fans. Boston managed 13 hits in their victory. Nels Potter(8-2) was the winner allowing no runs in 1 inning. Schoolboy Rowe(6-8) was the loser in relief. He allowed 1 run and 3 hits in 1 and 1/3 innings.
