Hirsch Slugs Mad Ants to 11-6 Win
Portland catcher Tom Hirsch played a vital role in his team's 11-6 conquest of Montreal. He went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 6 for Portland. Steve Greene claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3.1 innings. His record stands at 1-1. The Canadiens, now 34-72, have lost 11 in a row.

In the top of the sixth, the Mad Ants grabbed the lead when Hirsch hit his 9th home run of the season. The 3-run home run off A.J. Robinson made it 7-6, Portland.

Said losing manager : "These are the grinding hard days that all good teams go through, and this is when we've got to stick together and believe in one another."
