| Kings Win, 2-1, Versus Montreal | Seattle starter Charlie Rushing pitched well against the Montreal Saints at Stade Montreal. The right-hander led his team to a win, 2-1. Seattle now owns a record of 71-46.
Seattle used the timely hitting of Ben Baker to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Kings on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.
"We'll take some time to unwind," said Baker, "and then get after it again." | |
