Beaneaters Stay Hot, Beat Colts, 10-8
Despite a great performance by Chicago pitcher Walter Thornton, the Boston Beaneaters defeated the Colts by the score of 10-8 at South End Grounds 1894-1915. Thornton came in in relief and pitched to 20 batters. Boston goes to 5-0 with the win.

Abner Powell dealt the Colts a blow in the bottom of the first. Batting with the bases loaded and Boston leading 3-1, Powell, who finished 5th in the NL in ERA with 3.20 last year, hit a 1-0 fastball for a bases-clearing triple.

"We're stringing together some nice wins," said Boston manager Adam Engelke.
