Gonzalez, Expos Beat Cubs, 10-8
The Montreal Expos handed the Chicago Cubs a loss at Wrigley Field. The final score was 10-8. Major production was provided by Juan Gonzalez for Montreal. In addition to his 2 singles and 1 home run, he scored 2 runs and drove in 3. He also added 1 walk. Scott Williamson earned the save for Montreal, his 14th of the year. The Cubs, now 25-42, have lost 4 in a row.

The game was all tied up in the top of the eighth, until Gonzalez delivered big-time for Montreal, stroking a dramatic 2-run single off Paul Quantrill. The game-changing hit put the Expos on top, 10-8.

"Getting a lot of baserunners and getting some timely hits, it's a good combination," said Gonzalez.
