Habitants Rally Late to Clip New York
New York got a big-time effort from pitcher Nate Frampton, but it wasn't enough to keep the Montreal Habitants from winning the game, 3-2. Frampton threw 7.1 innings of shutout ball for the losing team. At 91-55, Montreal is in first place in the American Baseball League Eastern Division.

Jim Compton was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Habitants first baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Walking a team off at the end -- there's no greater feeling," said Compton.
