Clark Helps Blue Jays Run Win Streak to 6
The Toronto Blue Jays handed the Montreal Expos a loss at Olympic Stadium. The final score was 13-7. Will Clark was named player of the game for Toronto. In addition to his 2 singles and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 6. Toronto reliever Jim Corsi picked up the win, upping his record to 4-1. Pat Hentgen was saddled with the loss. Dana Kiecker converted his 7th save in 9 tries.

A key moment came when Clark faced Montreal hurler Pat Hentgen in the top of the sixth. The Blue Jays, who were trailing 7-6, had the bases loaded. Clark got a full count fastball and hit a grand slam.

"I believe in our guys," said Toronto skipper Jose Mata. "I like the energy they're playing with."

The third-place Blue Jays have won 6 straight games.
