Week 4: 4 vs Houston Astros(7-9), 3 @ San Diego Padres(6-10)

April 15th

Andy Lindaman(R, 1-1 2.76) - Brett Asselin(L, 0-3 4.50) A riddle that goes from a 2.94ERA to a 5.15ERA in two years.

Asselin K’s 10 En Route to 2-0 Expos Win

The Montreal Expos topped the Houston Astros, 2-0, in Eastern League action at Olympic Stadium. The standout performance belonged to Montreal pitcher and Brownsville, Texas, native Brett Asselin. The win brings the Expos to 10-7, a promising start as the team looks to return to the playoffs.

Houston had little success against Asselin and his changeup. Asselin tossed 104 pitches over 7 innings for the Expos.

"It was a solid team effort," said Asselin after the game.Both runs were scored, and in fact, driven in by Tyler Dean who hit two solo home runs today.

Devin Bennett(R, 0-0 8.40) - Sam Griffin(R, 0-1 2.75) Led the league in losses with 15 last year.

Another Wild Walkoff Wins it of Montreal, 8-7, over Astros

Houston first baseman Sean Thomason had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Thomason went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2, even as Montreal beat the Astros, 8-7. The Astros fall to 7-11 and continue their lackluster start to the 2024 season.

Gabriel Cervantes was the walk-off hero for Montreal. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Expos catcher hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It feels good, just a great win all around," Cervantes said after the game. The 28-year old is batting .281-2-7 .795OPS 0.4WAR in 16 games.

Gong-sun Zhào(R, 2-1 4.50) - Marty Murrietta(R, 2-0 1.86) The ever pesky 2x Win leader…

Expos Clinch Series With 9-1 Win

The Montreal Expos and starting pitcher Marty Murrietta stifled the Houston offense en route to a comfortable 9-1 win at Olympic Stadium. The 27-year old worked six innings of 1-run ball.

The loss puts Houston at 7-12.

Fernando Perez, who is tied for 5th in the EL in RBI with 15, helped out the Montreal cause in the bottom of the sixth inning with a run-scoring hit-by-pitch. For the game, the second baseman drove in one run.

"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Expos manager Aaron McCreery.

18-Run Barrage Seals 4-Game Sweep of Astros for Montreal

The Montreal Expos marched over the Houston Astros, 18-3, at Olympic Stadium. Fernando Perez, who finished 2nd in the EL in home runs with 37 last year, led the charge. He went 2 for 5 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 4. The loss puts Houston at 7-13.

Gabriel Cervantes hit a bases-clearing double off Jessie Dittus in the bottom of the first, which put the Expos in front, 4-2. In addition to the double, Cervantes had 2 singles and 1 walk, while going 3 for 5.

Padres Score Late as Ide Blows Game, Clip Expos 6-5

San Diego got a game-changing hit from Alex Cabrini. The pinch hitter blasted a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a winner. The sophomore is batting .219-1-4 .743OPS 0.1WAR in 14 games.
