Dave Schneck hit two homers and drove in four runs, but that was not enough for the Mets, who lost to the Expos, 7-4, for their sixth straight defeat. After Schneck connected with two aboard to put the Mets ahead in the sixth inning, 3-2, Bob Bailey tied the score with a circuit clout in the home half and Barry Foote followed with his first major league homer in the seventh to send the Expos ahead to stay. The Expos iced their verdict with three runs in the eighth, one on a double by Hal Breeden and two on a single by Tim Foli.
