Habitants Win Nail-Biter in 10
Montreal got a first-rate effort from pitcher Oscar Rodela, who frustrated Atlanta hitters en route to a 2-1 Habitants triumph at LaSalle Stadium. The winner in relief was Hervé Lelièvre. The left-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. He now owns a record of 4-2. Montreal goes to 46-28. The win puts them 5 games up in their division.

Montreal got a knockout punch from Mark Hinkle. The pinch hitter hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the tenth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

Hinkle called the win "what playing unselfish baseball looks like."
