No one was more impactful than C.J. Cron in the 6-3 Montreal win over Chicago. Cron was 3-4 with a home run and a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. James McDonald earned the win to go to 7-11. He allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 3 strikeouts in 5.1 innings of work. The Expos go to 50-75 with the win.

David Peralta, the 27-year old left fielder , had a direct impact on the outcome. Peralta contributed a solo home run in the top of the third inning to put Montreal up, 5-3.

"It's not about individual awards," Cron told a Montreal Daily News reporter after the game. "It's about winning championships. That's what we play for."
