Montreal Slaps 7-6 Loss on Excelsiors
Buster Brown had a 3-RBI game, during Montreal's 7-6 triumph over New York. Brown had 1 single, 1 double, and 3 walks in the contest. The winning pitcher was 32-year old right-handed pitcher John Babbitt. He tossed 170 pitches over 9 innings, allowing 6 runs on 12 hits. Montreal has a record of 49-28, placing them second in the International Association.

The game was all tied up in the top of the ninth, until Brown delivered big-time for Montreal, stroking a dramatic run-scoring single off Willie O'Boyle. The game-changing hit put the Tigers on top, 7-6.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Brown told the Montreal Observer.
