Habitants Lose to Hurons, 4-1
The Toronto Hurons downed the Montreal Habitants, 4-1, at LaSalle Stadium. Stellar pitching by Bill John had a lot to do with it. The right-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. With the win, Toronto goes to 6-3.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Roberto Hinojosa? The Toronto shortstop had a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Hurons on top, 3-1. For the game, Hinojosa had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said Hinojosa.
