Chicago Wins, 10-9, Over Saints
The Chicago Cougars beat the Montreal Saints in a game featuring much hitting but not much pitching. The final score was 10-9, Cougars. One of the hitting stars was left fielder Jim Barton. Barton, who finished 2nd in the CA in triples with 17 in 1960, was 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles. He scored 2 times. The win went to Arch Wilson in relief. His record improves to 9-2. Cliff Dinger took the loss. Chicago's winning streak has reached 5 games.

Mooney Vetter was the walk-off hero for Chicago. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Cougars third baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning in the last at-bat, there's nothing else like it," said Vetter.
