Cubs Earn 11-4 Home Win
The Chicago (N) Cubs defeated the Montreal Expos by the score of 11-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to designated hitter Mike Carp. Carp went 2-3 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs for the Cubs on the day. Matt Albers was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 2 of 4 save opportunities. The Cubs improved their record to 97-61 with the win over Montreal.

Reid Brignac had a big bases-clearing double for the Cubs in the bottom of the second inning. With Chicago (N) leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a slider from Vern Olsen, who finished 3rd in the NL in innings pitched with 246.1 in 1994, and swatted a double to right. It was his 24th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Cubs ahead, 4-0.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Carp.
