Royals Top Highlanders, 4-3
The Montreal Royals stopped the New York Highlanders, 4-3, in 12 innings at Windsor Palace. The Royals got a big game from Billy Johnson, who went 4 for 6 with a double and 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs. Montreal has now won 3 straight, while the Highlanders have lost 3 in a row.

Montreal got a knockout punch from Royce Watson. The center fielder hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the 12th inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"The crowd went wild," Watson said.
