The Montreal Tigers beat the Boston Brahmins, 9-6, at Brahmins Grounds. Montreal third baseman Crab Shelton, who is tied for 7th in the IA in home runs with 3, collected 2 singles and 1 double with 1 RBI. Stu Archibald got credit for the win, improving to 15-5. He allowed 6 runs on 10 hits in 9 innings. Montreal is now 46-28, while Boston is 25-44.

The Tigers got a big hit from center fielder Buster Brown. Facing Boston pitcher Roy Kane in the top of the fifth, Brown pounded a 2-run double to center. His 20th double of the season put the Tigers ahead, 6-1.

"Just trying to keep things simple and helping the team win any way I can," Shelton told a local reporter after the game.
