Starting pitcher Chris Carpenter pitched well enough to help the Montreal Expos beat the Chicago Cubs, 4-3. The Cubs, at 5-11, have stumbled out of the gate.

Desi Relaford was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Expos second baseman hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It's great to get the crowd pumped up," Relaford said.
