Hitting his first major league homer, Mike Schmidt connected with two men on base in the seventh inning to carry the Phillies to a 3-1 victory over the Expos. The rookie third baseman's blow ended a string of 25 innings of scoreless pitching by Balor Moore and doomed the Expos' lefthander to defeat.
