Hurons Win with Late Rally
The Toronto Hurons snuck past the New York Empires, 8-7, in 12 innings. Toronto first baseman Bill Hunt, in particular, had a standout performance. The Hurons raised their record to 52-79.

Toronto took advantage of an error in the top of the 12th inning. The game was tied, 7-7, when Dave Browning hit a run-scoring single that was misplayed. It put the Hurons in front, 8-7.

"Exciting game to play in," said Browning. "Getting the win makes it even better."
