Martinez Dominant in Montreal Win
In a low-scoring game between Montreal and Toronto, pitcher Pedro Martinez was excellent. The Montreal right-hander was named the player of the game in Montreal's 1-0 win. Montreal leads the United League East Division by 5½ games.

Toronto had little success against Martinez and his circle change. Martinez tossed 113 pitches over 7 innings for the Expos.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Martinez told the Montreal Herald.
