Baseball fans saw a good contest between the Philadelphia Phillies and Montreal Expos.

The Philadelphia Phillies dealt the Montreal Expos a 6-4 loss at Olympic Stadium. Gabe Gross was the star on offense. He went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. Taylor Buchholz, now 5-3, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings.

Gross had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a 2-1 fastball from Chris Schroder, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Phillies a 4-3 lead. It was the 26th home run of the year for Gross.

"I like winning," Gross told the Philadelphia Citizen. "I may joke around, but when it comes down to it, winning is the most important thing."

Philadelphia has run its win streak to 4 consecutive.
