Montreal Defeated by New York, 3-1
New York turned a good effort from starter Jon Pierce into a win over the Montreal Habitants at LaSalle Stadium. The final score was 3-1. Pierce, the winner, moves to 17-2. He threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up no walks. Tom Duncan earned his 3rd save in 6 chances.

Danny Barrera, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1974 draft, had a direct impact on the outcome. Barrera contributed a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put New York up, 3-0.

"Every loss stings," said Montreal manager Michel Alexandre Cauchon. "This one is no exception."

New York now has a record of 64-46 with the win.
