A homer by Larry Parrish with two men on base highlighted a five-run sixth inning that carried the Expos to a 7-2 triumph over the Cardinals. The Expos trailed, 2-1, but tied the game on a bloop triple by Rodney Scott and groundout by Rowland Office.

Andre Dawson then followed with a triple and came home on a double by Gary Carter. Warren Cromartie was intentionally walked before Parrish drilled his round-tripper. Dawson swatted a solo homer in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
