The timely hitting of Martin Chavez helped the Montreal Expos down the Kansas City Royals, 7-5. Chavez was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2 for the Expos. James Fisher got the win, improving to 6-4. He worked 7 innings, giving up 5 runs on 8 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 1. The triumph puts Montreal at 38-37 for the season.

Montreal relied on the hitting of Mike Salmon to pick up the win. The designated hitter clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Expos on top, 4-1. For the game, Salmon had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Montreal manager Robb Dixon.
