 Sept. 2, 2015 Boston 1, Louisville 0: A brilliant pitchers duel sees Jim Palmer (13-7, 2.71) outlast Catfish Hunter (16-6, 3.22) as both go the whole way in a game ended when Bruce Petway doubled, Keith Hernandez reached on an infield hit and Nick Swisher hit a SAC Fly to score Petway and end it. Chicago 9, Charlotte 0: Jake Peavy (12-10, 5.09) had nothing, and Charley Jones slammed two homers, driving in four, to back Ben Sanders (15-12, 3.37) in a complete game effort. Biz Mackey and Ed Delahanty each drove in a pair. New York 3, Philadelphia 1: The Heroes spotted starter Harry Krause (9-9, 3.90) a 2-0 lead after two and Krause did the rest. Krause hit three batters but benches never cleared, and the bottom trio of Cory Sullivan, Showboat Thomas and Billy Southworth each drove in a run. Bill Drake picked up an unexpected four-out save.
Indianapolis 6, Sacramento 0: The Engines got three hits apiece from Billy Hamilton and Elmer Flick and a two-run double from the surprising Lee Mazzilli to back a complete game two-hitter from Hooks Wiltse (9-9, 3.28). Milwaukee 3, Wichita 1: Adam LaRoche hit a 2-run homer in the top of the 9th off losing pitcher Kid Nichols (2-4, 4.22) to break a 1-1 tie. Number One pick John Montefusco (7-16, 4.19) went the distance for his first win since July 26.

Sept. 3, 2015 Louisville 5, Indianapolis 4: Roy Oswalt (4-0, 3.14) allowed four runs over eight innings but left with his team down 4-3 before scored a pair off Ferdie Schupp, who blew his 5th save of the season, in the 9th. Schupp allowed a one-out double to Jerry Mumphrey and would ultimate force in a run by walking Al Cowens and then surrender a tiebreaking SAC fly to Joe Tinker to spoil the win for Erik Bedard (11-10, 4.95). Philadelphia 10, Charlotte 9: The Cougars fought back from a 6-0 deficit against CC Sabathia (9-14, 4.43) - who has gone 2-6 with a 6.57 ERA in the second half. But in the end it wasn't enough, as a three-run 9th to tie it was undone when Jouett Meekin (5-9, 4.82) gave up a leadoff double to Tony Oliva, walked Heavy Johnson, allowed a bloop single to Ted Strong and a game-ending RBI single to Ian Kinsler to end it. Jason Bay (12) and Dobie Moore (3) homered for Charlotte in the loss. Andre Dawson went 3-for-3 with his 9th homer, which came off John Candelaria (14-8, 3.35) in the first. Boston 3, New York 2: Josh Beckett (9-7, 4.46) went the distance for New York, but surrendered a two-out tiebreaking solo shot to Adam Dunn in the top of the 9th as Boston won after tying it in the 8th. The homer was Dunn's PBL-leading 35th and made a winner out of Tommy John (10-9, 3.39), who went 8 strong. Tom Hume notched his 24th save for Boston.
Wichita 11, Sacramento 5: The Brigade led 4-3 after two, 7-5 after four and 9-5 after five, led by a pair of home runs from Jay Gibbons, giving him 19 for the season. He drove in 5 runs on the day, and Cesar Tovar had three hits and three RBI in the win. Justin Morneau and Jack Clark each drove in a pair for Sacramento. Dave Stewart (12-7, 4.07) was pummeled for 11 hits and 7 runs in 3 1/3 to take the loss. Jonas Gaines (2-0, 5.79) won despite allowing five runs over six innings of work.

Sept. 4, 2015 Indianapolis 8, Louisville 6: The Racers led 5-3 until Indianapolis rallied with a 5-run sixth, sparked by a two-run double from Lee Mazzilli that was followed by a two-run homer from Les Nunamaker, his 13th. The red-hot Jim Lefebvre went 2-for-4 with his 13th homer of the year in the loss for Louisville. Carl Weilman (13-7, 3.85) earned the win for Indianapolis, with Ferdie Schupp picking up his 16th save of the season. Bill Hands, strong over the first two months then brutal in June and July, seemed to find his way in August but was hit hard here, falling to 8-14 with a 5.08 ERA. New York 4, Boston 0: As he has so many times over the past seven years, Bill Byrd (8-11, 4.08) comes through in a big way, hurling a complete-game 2-hitter, striking out 6 as New York got three hits and 2 RBI from Buddy Kerr and, for the second straight game, a homer from Tony Perez, his 6th. Rudy May (9-7, 3.55) took the loss for Boston. Philadelphia 10, Charlotte 1: What was a 3-1 game blew up on Charlotte in the sixth, when Andre Dawson led off the inning with a leadoff homer off loser Ben Sheets (9-11, 4.91) and Jim Ray Hartblasted a three-run shot off reliever Ed Walsh, his 19th. Bill Doak (10-12, 4.80) went the distance for the Ringers.
Sacramento 6, Wichita 1: The Stingers get even in the series, getting a stellar start from Bob Shawkey (12-7, 3.44) and four hits and an RBI from Joel Youngblood in banging out 12 hits, chasing loser Ubaldo Jimenez after six (9-8, 3.94). Cesar Tovar and George Stone each had two hits for Wichita in the loss.

Sept. 5, 2015 Louisville 5, Indianapolis 1: Every Louisville starter had a hit, led by Rico Petrocelli's 20th homer, a 2-run shot in the fourth off loser Andy Coakley (15-10, 3.27) en route to victory. Jerry Mumphrey also drove in a pair. Larry Parrish hit the first homer of his career in the loss for Indianapolis, the only blemish against starter Mickey Harris (11-11, 3.97). Boston 7, New York 5: Adam Dunn did it again. As he did in the series opener, Dunn broke a tie game with a 2-run shot, his 36th, this one in the 8th off loser John Hiller (7-2, 3.12), negating New York's comeback from a 5-1 deficit. The Heroes answered a Boston 5-run top of the fifth with a four run bottom half to tie the game at 5. But winner Red Munger (12-6, 3.11) settled down the rest of the way, and Tom Hume closed it out with his 25th save. Charlotte 12, Philadelphia 1: The Cougars mauled the Ringers, belting out 16 hits. Dobie Moore hit a three-run shot off loser Jay Hughes (10-14, 4.25) in the second, and Joe Mauer hit a 3-run shot, his 9th, off reliever Steve Trout. Charlotte could have saved the runs, though, as starter Rick Sutcliffe (14-7, 3.27) went the distance, allowing only an unearned run. David Wright made the error, but also added three hits and two runs to keep up his hot start to September.
Wichita 2, Sacramento 1: Each team had only four hits, but Wichita scratched across the winner in the 9th when George Stone hit an RBI double to plate Hub Collins against tough-luck loser Rube Marquard (17-6, 3.60). Rube Waddell (8-8, 4.94), who picked up a 5-out save on Sept. 1, hurled the complete game winner for Wichita.

Sept. 6, 2015 Indianapolis 9, Louisville 8: As the Engines cling to faint playoff hopes (8 1/2 out) they hand Louisville a crushing loss. Down 5-4 in the top of the 9th, Louisville hangs a 4-spot on Engines closer Ferdie Schupp, helped by a Bill Hinchman dropped foul boul that prolonged George Kell's at bat, eventually leading to a bases-loading walk. Jerry Mumphrey, Brian McCann and pinch hitter Aaron Robinson came through with successive hits to give Louisville the lead. But Brad Lidge couldn't hold it, with walks to Billy Hamilton and Les Nunamaker bookending a Mike Easler single before Stan Musial drilled a bases loaded double into the gap to tie the game. Lidge gave way to Francisco Rodriguez, who allowed a game-ending, and redeeming, hit to Hinchman to score Musial and end it. New York 9, Boston 0: The Heroes got a complete game 4-hitter from Frank Killen (14-8, 3.50) and their offense battered Chief Bender (8-18, 4.39), helped by Mike Jacobs' 22nd homer of the season and two RBI apiece from Buddy Kerr and Joe Morgan. Philadelphia 5, Charlotte 4: Jim Clancy (3-8, 3.35) blew his 9th save of the season as the Ringers scored two in the bottom of the ninth to foil a strong start from Ralph Branca (9-13, 4.70). Micah Owings (11-10, 5.31) went the distance for Philadelphia, which got a 2-run homer from Jason Thompson, his 17th.
Sacramento 3, Wichita 2: Wayne Gross hit a three-run homer in the 5th inning, his 9th, and Bob Veale (18-7, 2.55) made it stand up over eight strong innings before handing it off to Joe Benz, who picked up his 7th save. Ricky Nolasco (15-7, 4.18) was strong in the loss for Wichita as the teams split the 4-game set.

Sept. 7, 2015 Chicago 5, Louisville 1: Ben Sanders (16-12, 3.28) allowed 10 hits but only one run in a complete game effort as the Racers just couldn't get a big hit. Charley Jones hit a two-run homer of loser Catfish Hunter (16-7, 3.30) in the first and the Hitmen never looked back. Ed Delahanty, Frank Baker and Patsy Doughtery each had two hits for Chicago. Roy Thomas, Rico Petrocelli and Buck Leonard each had two hits for Louisville. New York 3, Indianapolis 0: Hanley Ramirez made two errors, each leading to a run, and three New York pitchers - led by winner Harry Krause (10-9, 3.74) - shut out the Engines on 7 hits. Hy Meyers and Willie Horton each drove in runs and Tony Perez went 3-for-3 for New York. Hooks Wiltse (9-10, 3.18) took the tough-luck loss. Boston 5, Sacramento 3: The Stingers made a whopping six errors in the game, but still brought Justin Morneau to the plate as the tying run in the ninth before he struck out swinging against Al Brazle, who saved his fourth to end a 2 1/3 inning closing effort. Carlos Marmol (8-16, 3.28) allowed five unearned runs, as Boston had only five hits but took advantage of Sacramento's sloppy play to support Jim Palmer (14-7, 2.76). Charlotte 4, Wichita 3: David Wright went 3-for-4 with 2 RBI as Charlotte held off Wichita despite leaving 12 men on base. Jim Clancy picked up his 18th save and Jake Peavy (13-10, 4.98) was solid in beating Claude Hendrix (0-1, 3.38), who was making his first start of the season.

Sept. 8, 2015 Louisville 11, Chicago 7: Jim Lonborg (6-5, 4.42) was hammered for 7 runs, knocked out in the fourth. But the Racers hung an 8-spot on Len Barker (11-10, 4.12) in the top of the fifth and tacked on late inning runs, helped by 5 1/3 scoreless innings from Francisco Rodriguez and Roy Oswalt, whose start five days prior was apparently a one-off. Jim Lefebvre homered and drove in four, and every Racers starter had a hit. New York 6, Indianapolis 2: Josh Beckett (10-7, 4.23) allowed only two unearned runs in a complete game win and Toby Hall smacked his third homer, driving in three, as the Heroes kept pace with Louisville. Tony Perez had two more hits, driving in two as he continues to scald the ball in the past week. Erik Bedard (11-11, 4.98) took the loss for Indianapolis. Boston 5, Sacramento 2: Ginger Beaumont led off the fourth with his 12 home run and Adam Dunn later added his PBL-leading 37th to support Tommy John (11-9, 3.32) over Dave Stewart (12-8, 4.14). The Stingers left 12 men on base, helped by five walks from John, in the loss. Wichita 8, Charlotte 3: Despite the lowest home run total in the Northern League, Wichita got homers from Chet Lemon, Frank Chance and Hub Collins as they knocked around John Candelaria (14-9, 3.35). Kid Nichols (3-4, 4.06) went the distance for the Brigade.

Sept. 9, 2015 Chicago 3, Louisville 1: The Hitmen only got six hits on the night, but four came in a three-run third inning and Howie Pollet (8-14, 3.98) did the rest. Pollet allowed one run over eight innings and Brandon Lyon saved his 19th. Bill Hands (8-15, 5.00) took the loss. Indianapolis 5, New York 3: Billy Hamilton's fifth inning two-run shot, his third of the year, off Bill Byrd turned a 3-1 game into a 5-1 game and gave Carl Weilman (14-7, 3.83) the breathing room he needed. Tony Perez picked up another three hits and Irish Meusel hit his sixth homer, but it wasn't enough as the Heroes failed to capitalize on Louisville's loss. Sacramento 9, Boston 3: The Stingers crushed Rudy May (9-8, 3.90) for three runs in the third and four more in the fourth, enabling Bob Shawkey (13-7, 3.30) to cruise. Harry Walker had three hits, including his 10th homer, and 3 RBI. Garret Atkins and Joel Youngblod each drove in a pair as well. Wichita 10, Charlotte 5: The Northern League West made it 4-for-4 against the East on the day - for which Louisville was most thankful - as the league's leading hitter George Stone picked up four hits and 3 RBI to lift his average to .352. Cesar Tovar, called up Sept. 1, had three hits, three RBI and three runs scored and has hit .394 since the callup.

It is amazing that, after jettisoning so much of the core of their first six years, New York is still right there. I actually think Boston is the most dangerous of the four....they're pitching great with Palmer, Red Munger and Tommy John, and Adam Dunn is just on fire. |

Sept. 10, 2015 Indianapolis 10, New York 7 (12 innings): The Heroes blew leads of 4-2 and 7-3 as the Engines scored three in the eighth and one in the 9th to force extras before Hanley Ramirez hit his 11th of the season, a 3-run bomb off loser John Hiller (7-3, 3.41). Ramirez had been 0-for-5 before that at bat. Pud Galvin and Ferdie Schupp threw 5 2/3 innings of scoreless relief for Indianapolis. Sacramento 6, Charlotte 5: Former #1 draft pick Ed Walsh took his 13th loss of the season, blowing a save opportunity for Rick Sutcliffe. Rube Marquard benefited, getting the victory to go to 18-6 despite eight shaky innings. Harry Walker hit a two-run homer in the 7th off Sutcliffe to bring the Stingers within one, then hit a lead-giving single in the bottom of the 8th before Joe Benz closed it out for his 8th save.

Sept. 11, 2015 Wichita 6, Louisville 2: Ricky Nolasco (16-7, 4.09) outdueled Mickey Harris (11-12, 3.98) in a pitchers duel before Jim Lonborg gave up three successive hits in the 9th to put it out of reach. Frank Chance drove in two more runs, giving him 11 RBI in 11 days this month and pushing him over the 100-RBI plateau for 4th time in seven seasons. Chicago 7, New York 2: Johan Santana (9-15, 4.70) found some of last season's brilliance, going the distance to shut down the Heroes. Frank Killen (14-9, 3.60) struggled over seven innings and Troy Tulowitzski had two hits and two RBI in the win. Sacramento 1, Charlotte 0: This is what an ace does. Bob Veale (19-7, 2.45) struck out 10 over 8 shutout innings and Joe Benz saved his 9th as Ralph Branca (9-14, 4.50) allowed a run over 8 innings, with Don Buford's RBI double in the 7th the only blemish. Joe Mauer and Mike Mitchell had three hits apiece for Charlotte...the rest of the team had two. Boston 8, Milwaukee 6: The Riders scored seven runs over the first two innings off Pete Redfern (15-10, 4.76), including Adam Dunn's 38th, a two-run shot. Nick Swisher and Hardy Richardson also drove in two apiece in the win.

Sept. 12, 2015 Wichita 7, Louisville 4: Six hits became seven runs, helped by Catfish Hunter's (16-8, 3.46) surprising control issues, walking seven. Ken Griffey hit a bases loaded double and Wally Pipp hit a 2-run homer to support Ubaldo Jimenez (10-8, 3.95). Chad Cordero got his 24th save. Boston 12, Milwaukee 11: Boston led 1-0 after five. Milwaukee scored two in the top of the 6th. Boston scored six in the bottom of the 6th. Milwaukee scored nine in the top of the 7th. But Boston scored five over the final three innings, including a pair of homers from Adam Dunn to give him an even 40 on the season - to go with an even 100 RBI. New York 6, Chicago 0: Harry Krause (11-9, 3.60) and Bill Drake combined on a three-hitter and a Showboat Thomas three-run homer started a 6-run barrage against Ben Sanders (16-13, 3.42). Terry Kennedy picked up three more hits to continue a great season, raising his average to .332. Charlotte 4, Sacramento 3: David Wright hit an 8th inning homer for an insurance run that proved needed as Charlotte held on and made it three teams that gained on Louisville. Jake Peavy (14-10, 4.85) went seven strong innings for the Cougars.

Sept. 13, 2015 Wichita 4, Louisville 1: The Brigade complete a three-game sweep of the Racers, in Louisville, as Kid Nichols (4-4, 3.76) allowed three hits over 8 innings and Chad Cordero picked up his 25th save. Jay Gibbons hit a 2-run shot of loser Edinson Volquez (13-10, 4.86) and drove in three runs on the day. Milwaukee 14, Boston 3: The Bangers pummeled Jim Palmer (14-8, 2.95), knocking him out in the fifth, and got a complete game from #1 draft pick John Montefusco (8-17, 4.38). Joe Crede and Pete Hill each hit their 19th homers of the season, with Crede driving in four runs on the day and Hill and Nick Johnson each driving in three. Chicago 17, New York 11 (12 innings): Down 4-0 after two, the Heroes scored 11 unanswered runs only to allow a 7-run eighth inning that tied it and a 6-run top of the 12th to put it out of reach in a wild game that saw 28 runs, 36 hits and 12 walks. Biz Mackey drove in four and Jose Cardenal drove in three for Chicago. Mike Jacobs drove in four and Fielder Jones drove in three for New York. Bobby Jenks, Brandon Lyon and winner Joe Bush combined for 6 2/3 shutout innings of relief for the Hitmen. Charlotte 3, Sacramento 2: John Candelaria (15-9, 3.26) outdueled Dave Stewart (12-9, 4.01) and Jim Clancy notched his 20th save as Charlotte hangs in the race while Sacramento falls into a virtual dead heat with Wichita.

Sept. 15, 2015 Sacramento 11, Louisville 0: The Racers drop their fifth straight as Rube Marquard (19-6, 3.54) hurls a complete game and September callup Lyle Overbay smacks two homers and drives four as the Stingers try to reclaim first in the West. Bill Hands (8-16, 5.22) was pummeled for the third time in four starts. Indianapolis 3, Boston 1: Each team mustered only four hits, but Andy Coakley (16-10, 3.37) outdueled Tommy John (11-10, 3.28). Harry Stovey's 15th homer was the only blemish against Coakley, who left for Ferdie Schupp to record the final out and get his 18th save. Pedro Guerrero had two hits and an RBI for Indianapolis. New York 10, Wichita 4: The Brigade left 14 men on base and relinquished their 24-hour hold on first place, and New York cashed in its chances, with Terry Kennedy going 3-for-3 with two homers, three runs and four RBI and Willie Horton going 3-for-5 with a homer, two runs and two RBI. Charlotte 8, Milwaukee 4: George Hall, whose campaign in the PBL's inaugural season remains the best in league history, smacked two homers (19 and 20) and drove in three as Charlotte beat Eddie Cicotte (12-16, 4.47) and the Bangers. Ben Sheets allowed three in the first for Charlotte but settled in to pick up his 10th win of the season.

Sept. 16, 2015 Sacramento 9, Louisville 0: Make it six losses in a row for Louisville, this time with Bob Veale (20-7, 2.38) going seven shutout innings before Mark Mulder hurled the last two. Mickey Harris (11-13, 4.10) took the loss. Justin Morneau, Art Fletcher and Julio Lugo, who drove in four, homered for Sacramento. Indianapolis 5, Boston 4 (10 innings): The Engines scored three in the bottom of the 8th to tie it then got an RBI double from Hanley Ramirez to win it in the 10th as the Engines keep faint playoff hopes alive and Boston misses an opportunity to get within a half game of Louisville. Charlotte 2, Milwaukee 1: The Cougars got only four hits, but a 2-run homer from Hideki Matsui, his 5th, off Smokey Joe Williams (8-18, 4.68) was all Rick Sutcliffe (15-7, 3.25) needed. Jim Clancy picked up his 21st save as things tighten up in the East.

Sept. 17, 2015 New York 8, Louisville 3: As the stretch arrives each team plays only one more series outside their division. Here, division rivals meet to start a crucial three-game set, and the Heroes strike first. What was a 3-1 pitchers duel changes course quickly in the 7th as Willie Horton hits a grand slam off Catfish Hunter (16-9, 3.62) to break it open and make a winner out of Frank Killen (15-9, 3.58). Boston 2, Charlotte 1: In another crucial East division matchup, Charlotte manages four hits, Boston only five. But that extra hit proves the winner, as Hardy Richardson drives in Ginger Beaumont for the second time of the day, in the seventh, and Boston holds on. Chief Bender (9-18, 4.48) beats Jake Peavy (14-11, 4.77). Tom Hume got his 27th save. Philadelphia 4, Wichita 3: Jim Ray Hart hit his 20th homer of the season and drove in three as last place Philadelphia upended Wichita, knocking them 1 1/2 games back. Jay Hughes (11-15, 4.36) topped Ricky Nolasco (16-8, 4.12).

Sept. 18, 2015 Louisville 4, New York 3: Edinson Volquez (14-10, 4.82) scattered nine hits and three runs over 7 2/3 innings while the Racers made their 3-run third against Josh Beckett (10-8, 4.52) hold up. Brian McCann hit his 20th for Louisville. Boston 6, Charlotte 5: What was a 4-4 game entering the ninth became a 5-4 Charlotte lead after Paul Hines doubled home Bobby Lowe in the top half, only to watch Ginger Beaumont hit a walkoff 2-run homer off of Jim Clancy, who blew his 10th save of the season. Sacramento 4, Milwaukee 0: The Stingers have now gone 30 innings without allowing a run. Carlos Marmol (9-17, 3.16) was outstanding, striking out 8 in a complete game 3-hitter. And Art Fletcher, who hadn't homered in 432 at bats, hit two on the game and now has three this week. Wichita 6, Philadelphia 2: Kid Nichols (5-4, 3.60) was strong in a third straight effort and got a 3-run shot from Mike Lamb (8) and a two-run shot from Cleon Jones (11) to beat Bill Doak (11-13, 4.94).
