Expos Rally For Late Win Over Rockies
The Colorado Rockies and Montreal Expos were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd at Astrodome.

Montreal shortstop Francisco Lindor had 3 ribbies while helping his team defeat the Colorado Rockies, 9-5. Montreal reliever Roger McDowell was the winner. His record is now 1-0. Daniel Bard took the loss.

Montreal used the timely hitting of Max Muncy to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Expos on top, 7-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We bring energy to every game," said losing manager Ben Thompson. "But it's got to translate into wins."

Montreal, now 6-4, has gotten their season off to a good start.
