Habitants Squeeze By Boston, 8-7
The Montreal Habitants defeated the Boston Terriers, 8-7. First Baseman Don Hill deserved a large share of the credit. Hill went 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for the Habitants. Montreal pitcher Hervé Lelièvre got the win, upping his record to 3-0. Layton Taylor got the loss. The American Baseball League Eastern Division-leading Habitants have a record of 35-19.

Marvin Walker was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Habitants pinch hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"This place went bonkers at the end," Hill said.
