Although a catcher by trade, Gary Carter went into right field for the Expos and provided the big bat to account for a 3-1 victory over the Phillies. The youngster from Memphis (international) hit his first major league homer in the second inning and drove in another run with a single in the sixth. The Expos added a tally with a double by Larry Parrish and single by Pepe Mangual in the seventh before the Phillies broke through for their lone run off Steve Renko in the ninth.
