Royals Absorb 7-1 Loss at Quebecor Stadium
The Montreal Expos picked up a win at Quebecor Stadium, taking down the Kansas City Royals, 7-1. Starting pitcher Link Zeller was a big reason why. Zeller, now 8-9, was the winner. In 8.2 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 6, walking 1, and allowing 1 run. The win elevated the Expos to 66-39.

Steve French drew 1 walk for Montreal. The 24-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring hit-by-pitch off John Hall. It was his 60th RBI of the season.

"We'll relax tonight and get back after it tomorrow," Zeller said after the game.
