Pittsburgh left fielder Mort Fontaine picked up 5 ribbies while helping his team beat back the Montreal Expos, 8-7. The third-place Pirates bumped their record to 55-67.

Laurencio Meras was the walk-off hero for Pittsburgh. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Pirates catcher hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"There's nothing like the buzz of a walk-off win," Fontaine said.
