The Expos backed Steve Rogers with a 13-hit attack and defeated the Cubs, 6-1. The Expos scored twice in the second inning on a walk to Pete Mackanin and singles by Tim Foli, Rogers and Pepe Mangual. Two more runs followed in the third on an infield hit by Gary Carter, two errors and a homer by Mike Jorgensen before the Cubs picked up their lone tally in the fourth when Rick Monday hit for the circuit.
