Helping himself by driving in two runs, Ross Grimsley became a nine-game winner, pitching the Expos to a 5-3 victory over the Giants. Grimsley got off to a shaky start in the first inning, giving up a two-run homer by Jack Clark, but Chris Speier got one run back with a round-tripper in the Expos' half. The Expos then forged ahead with three runs, two unearned, off Ed Halicki in the second.
