Montreal Loses, 5-4, to Toronto in 10
LaSalle Stadium was the site of a competitive game between the Montreal Habitants and Toronto Hurons.

The Toronto Hurons besoiled an otherwise fine performance by Montreal left fielder Jerry Sullivan by beating the Habitants, 5-4, at LaSalle Stadium. Sullivan was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 runs. Toronto reliever Dave Hamilton picked up the win to move to 5-3. Al Johns suffered the loss.

Toronto used the timely hitting of Mike Walker to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Hurons on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Walker attributed the win to his team's "grittiness."

The Toronto win streak is now 3 games.
