| Foresters Beaten By Saints, 7-3 | Montreal Saints starter John Roberts found his groove in his team's 7-3 win over the Cleveland Foresters. Roberts got the win, improving to 6-10. He gave up 6 hits and walked 0 over 5 innings. He allowed 2 runs. With this game in the books, Montreal is 69-71, Cleveland 70-68.
Dixie Turner, who led the CA in slugging percentage with .608 in 1972, helped out the Montreal cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring walk. For the game, the second baseman drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances.
"The only difference is executing pitches and not executing pitches," said Roberts. "When you don't execute, you get beat. When you execute, you usually give your team a chance to win."
