Royals Lose to Expos, 4-2
The Montreal Expos picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, knocking off the Kansas City Royals, 4-2. Starting pitcher Mike L Griffin was an essential part of his team's success. Rob Johnson earned the save for Montreal, his 2nd of the year. The Royals fall to 10-14 and continue their lackluster start in 1969.

Montreal used the timely hitting of Keith Moreland to capture the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Expos on top, 1-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Montreal manager Chuck Glidden.
