Expos 6, Mets 2
Jerry Koosman vs Don Stanhouse
Pepe Mangual's dropped fly ball in center opened the door for two
runs to score in the 4th and give the Metsies a 2-1 lead. Typically such a gaffe would be the beginning of the end for the Expos, but not today as the Mets gold glove shortstop Bud Harrelson made a huge faux pas in the 6th that helped lead to 4 unanswered runs being scored by Montreal. After Nate Colbert worked out a walk to lead off the 6th, Harrelson threw wide of first on Andy Thornton's slow roller. Carter would follow that with an RBI single to tie the game at 2-2. Larry Parrish fanned and Foli popped out to shallow center for the second out. Successive singles by Pete Mackanin, Bombo Rivera and pinch hitter Jose Morales plated 3 unearned runs, because Koosman should have easily been out of the inning if not for the error. Rivera's RBI single in the 8th scored Parrish, who led the inning off with a walk. Don Stanhouse (3-0, 2.38) left the game after 6 and Steve Dunning turned in a fantastic 3 inning save performance to close out the game and give the Expos their second win in a row. Stanhouse would give up just 4 hits and 1 unearned run in his 6 frames. Dunning held down the fort and never let the Mets get back in it.
