The Saints got a big at-bat from second baseman Harry Finney. For the game, Finney went 1 for 3 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. In the bottom of the sixth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 2nd home run of the season gave Montreal a 5-3 lead.

Finney told the Montreal Daily: "I think I thrive on conflict. It brings out my best."
