The Montreal Tigers stopped the Kansas City Prairie Dogs, 12-6, at Carver Grounds. The Tigers got a big game from Crab Shelton, who went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Jack Kerwin got the win, improving to 1-0. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 8 hits and 6 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 4. Montreal goes to 3-2.

Jack Kerwin had a big 2-run double for the Tigers in the top of the fourth inning. With Montreal leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from fan favorite Jon Baxter and swatted a double to right. It was his 2nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Tigers ahead, 3-0.

"Nice win for us," said Kerwin. "Now we'll go after the next one."
