Montreal Drops New York, 7-4
Montreal parlayed a decent outing from starter Joe Henry into a solid win over the New York Excelsiors. The final score was 7-4. Montreal has a record of 50-28, placing them second in the International Association.

Montreal used a well-timed hit by Tom Fowler to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"I feel like a little kid every time I put the uniform on," said Fowler.
