Hickey Helps Empires Defeat Habitants, 9-4
The New York Empires topped the Montreal Habitants, 9-4, with center fielder Roger Hickey playing a big role. Hickey was 3-3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 3 runs for the Empires in the win. New York's winning streak has reached 4 games.

Jim Caldwell had a big 2-run home run for the Empires in the bottom of the third inning. With New York leading 4-2 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a changeup from Bob Schar, who led the ABL in wins with 21 in 1967, and punished it. The result was his 5th home run of the season, which put the Empires on top, 6-2.

"We'll just keep our nose to the grindstone," Hickey told the New York Daily News.
