Dan Schatzeder and Scott Sanderson combined on a five-hitter as the Expos whitewashed the Astros, 3-0. An error by Astro third baseman Enos Cabell helped the Expos to a run in the second inning and a groundout by Andre Dawson produced another tally in the fifth. A pinch-single by Jerry White in the sixth drove home the Expos' final run.
