Expos Stun Cardinals, 5-3
St. Louis got a terrific game from catcher Ray Mueller. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Montreal, 5-3. Mueller went 2-4 with 2 home runs. Lefty West was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 7 of 8 save opportunities. Montreal has run its win streak to 5 in a row.

Montreal used the timely hitting of Rafael Palmeiro to seize the win. The pinch hitter stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Expos on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We're not really clicking on anything right now," said St. Louis manager David Mandel.
