San Diego opened the scoring when Terry Kennedy hit a homerun in the 3rd inning off Montreal's Charlie Lea. Padre starter Eric Show was sailing along until the 7th inning when Tim Wallach hit a 2-run shot giving the Expos a 2-1 lead. Chris Spier followed with a homerun making it 3-1 and Show's day was over. Lea pitched an excellent game, going the distance for Montreal allowing 6 hits and striking out 7.

Chris Speier connected with a 'big fly' and Charlie Lea came through with a
solid 9 innings at Jack Murphy Stadium where the Montreal Expos beat the San
Diego Padres by the score of 3 to 1.
 
Montreal scored all of the necessary runs in the 7th inning when they came up
with 3 runs on 3 hits.  The big moment was provided by Tim Wallach who
quieted the home crowd when he cleared the fences for a two-run home run.
Montreal rapped out 9 hits for the afternoon.  
 
Lea(1-0) lasted until the end allowing 1 run for the win. Eric Show(0-1) was
hit with the loss.  He gave up 3 runs and 8 hits in 6 and 1/3 innings.
 
When questioned about his counterpart after the game, Show was lavish in his
praise, 'It was obvious very early on that we were going to be in for a long
night.  Lea brought his 'A' game with him - he had good stuff and was able to
spot it perfectly.  He probably only made one or two bad pitches the entire
game!
