Overcoming a 9-2 deficit, the Expos prevailed over the Padres, 12-9. The Expos sent 11 men to the plate in a seven-run sixth. Chris Speier cracked a three-run double, Rodney Scott and Larry Parrish had RBI singles and Gary Carter tied the score at 9-9 with a two-run double.

The Expos then went ahead to stay in the seventh with singles by Ken Macha, Speier and Warren Cromartie. The Expos picked up two more tallies later in that frame on a bases-loaded walk to Scott and sacrifice fly by Parrish. [The Sporting News]
