Expos Bang Out 10-5 Win Versus Pittsburgh
The Montreal Expos topped the Pittsburgh Pirates by the score of 10-5, with the biggest share of the credit going to designated hitter Billy Harding. Harding was 2 for 4 with a double and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Expos on the day. Carlos Rúbio, who went 6 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 2 runs on 4 hits, while walking 0 and striking out 5. His record now stands at 7-12. Justin Richards converted his 9th save in 10 tries.

The fans who came in support of the Expos were pleased with the outcome. It was what they had hoped for when they passed through the turnstiles at PNC Park.

"We need to keep playing good baseball," Harding told the Montreal Herald.

Montreal has a 3-game win streak, while Pittsburgh has lost 3 in a row.
