Expos Get Close Win Over Diamondbacks
The Montreal Expos topped the Arizona Diamondbacks, 3-1, in United League action at Bank One Ballpark. The player of the game was Montreal pitcher and Detroit, Michigan native Pat Hentgen. Hentgen, now 4-1, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 6, walking 0, and allowing 1 earned run. Earning his 6th save for Montreal was Mike Jeffcoat.

Matt Williams had an important at-bat with one out in the top of the eighth, when he hit a run-scoring double. His 2nd double of the season put Montreal on top, 2-1.

"Coulda, shoulda, woulda," said Arizona manager Alen Maglajac. "We had our chances and didn't cash in."

The Expos, now 20-10, have been playing some good baseball.
