Mets Drop Expos, 5-4
Montreal catcher Brad Ausmus had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Ausmus was 3 for 3 with a home run, 2 singles, and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once, even as New York beat the Expos, 5-4. Reliever Jeff Nelson picked up the win. His record improves to 3-3. Drew Hall took the loss. The victory gives the Mets a record of 83-72.

The Mets procured the win, in large part because of first baseman Jason Giambi. In the bottom of the tenth, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"The house was rockin'," said Giambi.
