Cubs Lose to Expos, 6-4
Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Montreal Expos and Chicago Cubs.

The Montreal Expos topped the Chicago Cubs, 6-4, in National League action at Olympic Stadium. The game was highlighted by the performance of Montreal pitcher Michael Steen. Rollie Fingers converted his 7th save in 8 tries.

Dale Murphy contributed a productive at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, he hit a 2-run single. It was one at-bat that helped Montreal get the win.

"The team always comes first, so pulling out the win on a day like today is the most important thing," Steen told a reporter while responding to autograph requests. "Our fans like to come out to see a win, so I'm happy to do what I can to give them that."

The National League East Division-leading Expos have a record of 66-48.
