Expos Top White Sox to Even Record
In a tight tilt between the Montreal Expos and the Chicago (A) White Sox, Vern Olsen was the deciding factor. The Montreal left-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. The 6th-place Expos have won 4 in a row.

Had Billy Goodman not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Goodman hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Expos.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said Chicago (A) skipper Steven Ejercito, "and it cost us."
