Whistlers Win, 7-3, Versus Tampa Bay
Boston Whistlers starter Jay Helm found his groove in his team's 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Captains. The win went to D.J. Elliott in relief, making him now 2-1. Bobby Purdy took the loss for Tampa Bay. Boston improves to 88-66 with the win. They lead their division by 13½ games.

The game was at a stalemate until third baseman Matt Schmid came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Tampa Bay pitcher Ted Tygart, he hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Boston on top, 4-3.

"I still think this team can play even better," Schmid told the Boston Daily.
