The home crowd had a good time watching the Montreal Expos and Chicago (N) Cubs get after it.

In the 8-3 Chicago (N) win over Montreal, the impact of Matt Williams was substantial. Williams, who is tied for 6th in the NL in RBI with 26, went 2-2 with a double and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. With this game in the books, Chicago (N) is 21-14, Montreal 14-18.

With Chicago (N) leading 3-2 in the bottom of the third, Williams hit a fastball from Vern Olsen for a 2-run double. It was his 9th double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 5-2.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Williams.
