Excelsiors Earn 4-3 Road Win Over Montreal
The New York Excelsiors picked up a win at St. Gabriel Grounds, downing the Montreal Tigers, 4-3. On the mound for New York was right-hander Candy Lemmons, who played a pivotal role in the win. Lemmons yielded 3 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 8 hits, walked 3, and struck out 1. His record improves to 19-18. New York is now 67-56, Montreal 81-48.

Willis Gaylord went 1-4 for New York. With two out and the game tied in the top of the seventh inning, Gaylord, who finished 2nd in the IA in runs with 99 in 1884, had a clutch at-bat. Facing Montreal hurler Dave Appling, he reached on an error by the 2B, driving in 1 run to give the Excelsiors a 4-3 lead.

"I really like what we did out there today," Gaylord said after the game.
