Saints Beat Wolves, 10-8
The Montreal Saints beat the Toronto Wolves by a score of 10-8. Montreal right fielder Harry Swain deserved the lion's share of the credit. Swain belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice for the Saints. Gene Faulkenberry, the 10th overall pick in the 1958 draft, was the winner in relief. His record is now 2-3. The losing pitcher was Hank Lacey. Bob Nelson closed the game out for Montreal, earning his 1st save.

Swain had a key at-bat for Montreal in the top of the first. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a 3-run home run. It was his 14th home run of the season and gave Montreal an early 3-0 lead.

"Been a pretty good stretch for me, hitting-wise," said Swain.

With this game in the books, Montreal is 44-69, Toronto 44-73.
