Five-hit pitching by Steve Rogers carried the Expos to a 6-2 triumph over the Phillies. The Expos broke a 2-2 tie in the seventh inning when Chris Speier walked and was replaced by pinch-runner Tim Raines, who stole second and scored on a double by Warren Cromartie. Montreal added three runs in the eighth on consecutive doubles by Gary Carter, Larry Parrish and Tim Wallach, an intentional walk to Terry Francona and a double by Mike Phillips. [The Sporting News]
