Expos Score Late, Upend Braves, 4-1
Behind an impressive start by Steve Brigman, Montreal beat Atlanta, 4-1. The win was credited to 26-year old right-handed pitcher Jon Gibbons in relief. His record improves to 7-3. Huibert Dijkstra took the loss. Ernesto Esquivel converted his 3rd save in 5 tries.

Montreal used the clutch hitting of Ismael Rosas to snag the win. The pinch hitter drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Expos ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a crucial one.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Brigman told the Montreal Chronicle.

Montreal is now 67-54, while Atlanta is 61-60.
