Expos Post 7-5 Win Over Houston
Montreal and Houston duked it out and the Expos came out victorious.

The Montreal Expos bested the Houston Astros by a score of 7-5, with first baseman Freddie Freeman getting the main credit. On the day, Freeman went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Expos. Montreal reliever Devin Williams picked up the win, raising his record to 6-2. Shane Bieber was tagged with the loss. Earning the save was Jose Alvarado. He's now cashed in 26 of 30 save opportunities.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Daniel Vellojin came to bat in the top of the ninth. Facing Houston pitcher Shane Bieber, he hit a 3-1 fastball for a 2-run double. It was a game-changer, putting Montreal on top, 7-5.

"I still think this team can play even better," Vellojin told the Montreal Times.

The second-place Expos have won 4 straight games.
