					| Expos Sneak Past Astros, 2-1 |  
					| Montreal beat Houston on the strength of starter Julian Black's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 2-1. Montreal reliever Zack Rust picked up the win, upping his record to 3-2. Josh Sandoval shouldered the loss. The last-place Astros have lost 5 straight games. 
 Steve French drew 1 walk in 4 trips to the plate for Montreal. The fan favorite  had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring  sacrifice fly off Josh Sandoval. It was his 29th RBI of the season.
 
 "For the most part, I stayed out of the middle of the plate," Black said.
