Aces Come Up Short at Montreal, 2-1
In a tension-filled contest between the Montreal Royals and the Quebec Aces, pitcher Ian McSorley was superb. The Montreal right-hander, who is tied for 9th in the SC in innings pitched with 124.1, spearheaded his team's 2-1 win. McSorley got the win, improving to 7-8. He gave up 3 hits and walked 3 over 5.2 innings. He allowed 1 run. With the win over Quebec, the Royals improved to 47-61.

Dave DeSanto chipped in a solo home run for Montreal in the bottom of the fourth. For the game, the designated hitter had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 1 run batted in.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," DeSanto told a Montreal Gazette reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
