Tim Wallach hit two homers and Charlie Lea twirled a four-hitter as the Expos blanked the Astros, 10-0. The Expos scored five runs in the first inning on Andre Dawson's two-run homer, an error by Houston left fielder Jose Cruz and two-run blast by Wallach. Wallach also drilled a two-run round-tripper to cap a three-run fifth. [The Sporting News]
