Expos Rebuff Cardinals, 4-2
The Montreal Expos picked up a win at Stade Olympique, knocking off the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-2. Starting pitcher James Kaprielian was a big reason why. Montreal reliever Rex Brothers got the win, raising his record to 2-2. Nick Pivetta was tagged with the loss. The loss makes St. Louis 23-21.

Brett Gardner drove in one run for Montreal. The 31-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Nick Pivetta. It was his 4th RBI of the season.

After the game, Montreal manager Marwan Najdawi applauded the team's effort. "They busted their tails out there," he said.
