Tigers Beat Monarchs in 16
The Montreal Tigers beat the Cincinnati Monarchs, 11-7 -- though it took them 16 innings. Montreal catcher Tom Fowler had a pretty good game. He was 3 for 7 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 4. Rodney Friesen notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 2 innings. His record now sits at 2-1. Montreal, at 57-37, sits in second place in the International Association.

Buster Brown drove in one run for Montreal. The slugging center fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the 16th. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 7-7 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Kenneth Ranson. It was his 74th RBI of the season.

"Feels good to be on the winning side," said Fowler.
