Méndez Slugs Royals to 9-4 Win
1972 is shaping up to be a forgettable year for the Puerto Rico Hurricanes.

The 9-4 Montreal win over Puerto Rico was due in large part to Juan Méndez. The Royals first baseman belted 3 home runs. He drove in 6 runs and scored three times. Bob Wagner got the win, improving to 14-12. He pitched 9 innings, giving up 10 hits and 4 runs, while striking out 11 and walking 3.

In the top of the first of a scoreless game, Méndez hit a 2-run home run to put his team ahead.

"We'll kick back tonight, then get set for the next one," Méndez said.

The Royals improved to 86-64.
