History was made in Boston as Billy Hoeft(6-2) tossed a no-hitter and the New
York NL Giants defeated the Boston Red Sox by the score of 4 to 0.

Hoeft had an evening to remember.  He walked 3 Boston batters.  The tension
started to build around the 6th inning.  By the 9th inning the crowd was
electrified.  New York NL had only 6 hits for the game.  

The losing pitcher was Frank Sullivan(6-7).  What a show!' Camacho said.
'Hoeft was great out there -- I'm happy that he go it.'
