Expos Sneak Past Astros, 4-3
The Montreal Expos spoiled a good performance by Houston center fielder Joe Orsulak, bumping off Houston, 4-3, at Stade Olympique. Orsulak belted 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for Montreal.

Lu Blue was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Expos designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"We'll keep playing hard and let the chips fall where they may," said Montreal manager Marwan Najdawi.
