After hitting a two-run homer to tie the score in the eighth inning, Mike Jorgensen drove in another run with a single in the 12th to bat the Expos to a 3-2 victory over the Cubs. Manny Trillo accounted for the Cubs' pair with a single in the fourth. Jorgensen's homer in the eighth followed a pass to Jim Dwyer.

Pepe Mangual drew a walk in the 12th, stopped at second on a single by Tim Foli, stole third and crossed the plate on Jorgensen's single. Dale Murray, who pitched five innings of three-hit relief, picked up his 15th victory and third over the Cubs in six days. [The Sporting News]
