Lieberthal Socks Cardinals in 11-4 Expos Win
Mike Lieberthal powered the Montreal Expos to a win over the St. Louis Cardinals. The final score was 11-4. The Montreal catcher, who is a two-time Gold Glove Award winner, was phenomenal. He stroked 3 extra-base hits, including 2 home runs and 1 double. The Expos, now 13-7, have been on a roll in the early going.

In the bottom of the sixth, Lieberthal put his team in front with his 3rd home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which came against Shannon Withem, made it 7-4, Montreal.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Lieberthal.
