The Montreal Expos defeated the New York Mets, 6-2, in United League action at Olympic Stadium, with Montreal pitcher Pat Hentgen named player of the game. Hentgen, now 12-10, was the winner. In 9 innings, he gave up 6 hits, while striking out 8, walking 1, and allowing 2 earned runs. The Expos, now 95-50, have won 7 in a row.

One pivotal at-bat came in the top of the fourth with one out. With runners on 1st and 2nd and the Mets trailing 2-0, Pat Hentgen needed to make a quality pitch. He threw a full count fastball to retire Greg Colbrunn, who hit into a double play.
