Habitants Use Late Score to Top Drillers, 6-5
The Montreal Habitants defeated the Houston Drillers, 6-5, in 11 innings in American Baseball League action at Sam Houston Field. Montreal pitcher Rich Barron had a standout performance. Al Johns locked down his 3rd save. The Habitants raised their record to 19-18.

Tim Delaney was 3 for 5 with 3 singles and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs for Montreal. The 28-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the 11th. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring hit-by-pitch off Jeff Ferguson. It was his 13th RBI of the season.

"It was terrific getting this win," Barron said. "We put in a lot of work to do it."
