Joe Torre hit a three-run homer as the Cardinals' big blow in a 7-2 victory over the Expos. Lou Brock doubled in the fourth inning, stopped at third on a single by Ted Sizemore and beat the throw home on a grounder by Matty Alou before Torre came to the plate and boosted his season's RBI total to 131 with his homer.
