Continuing his slugging outburst, Clete Boyer belted two homers, giving him five in last the five games, to lead the Braves to a 10-4 victory over the Expos. Mike Lum also hit two homers.

After Boyer connected with a man on base in the third inning, Boyer and Lum homered in succession in the sixth. Lum added his other blow with a man on base in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
