The Cardinals, who went into Montreal with a club batting average of .300 in road games, collected only one hit off Steve Rogers and lost to the Expos, 2-0. Mike Tyson singled in the third inning for the lone safety. The Expos nicked Eric Rasmussen for a run in the first inning on singles by Dave Cash and Chris Speier and an infield out by Ellis Valentine. Larry Parrish homered for their other run in the fifth.
