Saints Knock Off Sailors, 5-3
The Montreal Saints picked up a win at Golden Gate Stadium, knocking off the San Francisco Sailors, 5-3. Starting pitcher Jack Wright played a key role in the triumph. The 4th-place Saints go to 66-71.

The Sailors had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Saints going into the top of the third inning. That changed quickly when the three-time All-Star Maurice Carter came to the plate. Carter hit a 3-run home run on a 0-1 fastball from San Francisco hurler Dan Atwater. It was Carter's 33rd home run of the year.

"Nice win for us," said Carter. "Now we'll go after the next one."
