| 6 Straight Wins for Saints | Pitcher Hal Bennett was rock solid in helping the Montreal Saints beat the Chicago Cougars, 7-1. Bennett yielded 1 run over 7 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 1, and struck out 4. His record improves to 5-1. The Saints have now won 6 straight.
Ken Steinbach went 2-4 with 2 singles for Montreal. The 26-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two out and runners on 1st and 2nd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring single off Roger Alford. It was his 42nd hit of the season.
"I think it speaks for itself, I think we came out and we played our kind of baseball," said Bennett.
