Habitants Win Squeaker, 6-5, Over Wolverines
The Montreal Habitants weathered a fine game by Detroit right fielder Pete Morrison to upend the Wolverines, 6-5, at LaSalle Stadium. Morrison was 3 for 5 with 2 home runs and a double. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. The winner in relief was Dave Quinlan. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2 innings. He now owns a record of 3-4. The 4th-place Habitants have won 6 straight games.

The decisive blow was delivered by Roberto Alvarez in the bottom of the 11th when he hit a run-scoring double off 27-year old right-handed pitcher Paul Carter to win the game for Montreal. The home crowd went nuts.

"I like how we're playing right now," said Alvarez.
