| Saints Fall Short, 4-3, at Dallas | In the 4-3 Dallas win over Montreal, the impact of Dizzy Franz was substantial. Franz slugged 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Picking up the win was Rex Conner. He went 6.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits. The right--hander struck out 0 and walked 2. Gene Amico notched his 7th save of the season.
Dallas took the lead in the bottom of the fifth when Franz hit a 2-run home run. His 5th home run of the season made the score 4-2, Dallas.
"If we keep winning the close games," Franz said, "we'll be in good shape at the end."
Montreal, at 7-23, is off to a poor start in 1962.
