Pirates Flatten Expos, 10-4
A 4-RBI performance from the former first round draft pick Dmitri Young helped the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Montreal Expos, 10-4. Pittsburgh is now 50-66. Montreal is 59-56.

Young contributed a big hit, a grand slam home run, for Pittsburgh in the bottom of the third. With his team trailing 3-0, Young took a fastball from John Smoltz and stroked the home run to left-center. His 12th home run of the season allowed the Pirates to leap in front, 4-3.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Young told a Pittsburgh Chronicle reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
