Cesar Geronimo knocked in two runs with a triple and scored himself on a sacrifice fly as the Reds rallied in the ninth inning to defeat the Expos, 4-3. Joe Morgan and Dan Driessen both singled ahead of Geronimo's three-bagger that tied the score. Mike Lum followed with a sacrifice fly, sending Geronimo home with the winning run. [The Sporting News]
