Habitants Earn 5-4 Win Against Wolverines
The Montreal Habitants snuck past the Detroit Wolverines, 5-4, in 10 innings. Montreal pitcher Oscar Rodela, in particular, had a standout performance. Dave Quinlan, credited with the win in relief, is now 5-4. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. The Montreal win streak is now 3 games.

Steve Burke, who finished 4th in the NBL in stolen bases with 28 in 1964, helped out the Montreal cause in the top of the ninth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the pinch hitter was 1 for 1.

"Baseball is such a beautiful game," said Burke. "Anything can happen on any night, and that's why you don't dwell on what happened yesterday. Just look forward and trust you're going to have positive results."
