Provincials Improve to 17-12 with 13-4 Win
The Toronto Provincials soundly defeated the New York Excelsiors, 13-4, at Garrison Common Grounds, with center fielder Isaac Montgomery a major reason why. He went 2-4 with a triple and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 for Toronto. Henry Clancy, the winner, goes to 5-3. He allowed 4 runs on 13 hits, with no walks and 1 strikeout over 9 innings. The Provincials improved their record to 17-12 by beating New York.

The Provincials benefited from an error in the bottom of the second inning. Toronto was leading 3-2 when Merritt Hunter hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Toronto in front, 5-2.

"Our approach was just to try to see something over the plate and be aggressive," Montgomery told the Toronto News.
