Gangsters Sunk by Whistlers
The performance of Carlos Herrera proved critical in helping Boston beat Chicago, 11-5. The Whistlers designated hitter went 2-4 with a double and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Nate Benson picked up the win, lifting his record to 2-0 on the season. He struck out 8 and walked 5 in 6 innings, while yielding 3 runs. Scott Johnson earned the save for Boston, his 3rd.

Boston used a clutch at-bat from Tim Lotz to capture the win. The first baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Whistlers ahead, 5-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Nice win for us," said Lotz. "Now we'll go after the next one."

The American Conference Central Division-leading Whistlers have a record of 88-71.
