Kichida Propels Montreal to 3-1 Win
Pitching was the name of the game in a tight contest between the Montreal Royals and the Houston Colt .45s. Montreal won it, 3-1. Montreal starter Yoriie Kichida was in command. This win makes it 5 in a row for Montreal.

It was a masterful performance from the popular Kichida, who notched 7 strikeouts in 7.1 innings while allowing 2 hits. Kichida, who finished 5th in the UL in wins with 18 in 1969, goes to 5-3 on the year with 81 strikeouts.

"I had everything working," said Kichida.
