Denmark Delivers Walk-Off Win for Shamrocks
Despite a great performance by Houston right fielder Jonathan Thornton, the Boston Shamrocks defeated the Mavericks by the score of 10-7 at Shamrock Grounds. Thornton hit 3 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring three times. Boston reliever Harry Parker picked up the win, upping his record to 5-1. Kevin Phillips took the loss. The Shamrocks improved their record to 26-25 with the win over Houston.

Boston got a clutch hit from Dustin Denmark. The first baseman launched a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Denmark told the Boston Daily. "It's as simple as that."
