Whalers Sneak Past Saints, 3-2
In a low-scoring affair between the Hartford Whalers and the St. Paul Saints, pitcher Melis Velthuizen was the difference between victory and defeat. The Hartford left-hander earned accolades in the 3-2 Whalers win. George Connolly picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 6-0. Peer Kost was tagged with the loss. Hideyoshi Watanabe got the save, his 28th in 31 chances.

Had Petro Gouloze not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 1st, Gouloze hit a run-scoring double. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Whalers.

"Both teams played hard," said Hartford manager Jorge Padilla.

St. Paul has now lost 5 in a row.
