Expos Squash Rangers, 11-2
The Montreal Expos handed the Texas Rangers a sound defeat, 11-2, at Stade Olympique. Billy Goodman, who finished 4th in the NL in wins above replacement with 7.1 last year, was a main contributor to the win. He went 3-3 with 3 singles and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs for Montreal. The winner in relief was James Kaprielian. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 3.1 innings. He now owns a record of 1-0. The Rangers, now 4-8, continue their poor start.

Montreal designated hitter George Shuba contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 13th hit of the season and put the Expos ahead, 2-0.

"Every manager loves to see an offensive outburst from his team," said Montreal skipper Marwan Najdawi.
