Two doubles by Barry Foote and one each by Jim Dwyer and Tim Foli were the Expos' key blows in a 4-3 victory over the Phillies. Foote's first two-bagger, a single by Jerry White and double by Dwyer produced two runs in the third inning. Singles by Larry Parrish and Foli around a sacrifice added a tally in the fourth before the Expos put over their deciding run in the ninth when Foli and Foote hit successive doubles.
