Braves Win, 7-2, at Montreal
Dave Fleming, who signed a 2-year contract worth $6,900,000 on 01/23/1998, had a strong outing for the Atlanta Braves against the Montreal Expos at Olympic Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 7-2 win. Fleming picked up the win for Atlanta, going 7.2 innings. He gave up 2 runs on 6 hits. He now sports a record of 14-6. The win puts Atlanta at 79-67 this season.

Atlanta used a clutch at-bat from Rusty Greer to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Braves ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," Greer told the Atlanta Today.
