Downbound Excelsiors Lose 11th Straight
The Montreal Tigers picked up a win at St. Gabriel Grounds II, downing the New York Excelsiors, 7-5. On the mound for Montreal was right-hander John Babbitt, who played a pivotal role in the win. Babbitt yielded 5 runs over 9 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 3, and struck out 4. His record improves to 8-10. Now 20-44, New York has dropped 11 straight.

Montreal took a 6-5 lead on Tom Fowler's 13th triple of the season. The run-scoring triple, which Fowler hit in the bottom of the eighth, left New York pitcher Candy Lemmons visibly frustrated.

"It's going to click," said New York manager . "It's just a matter of when."
