Expos, Vansant Pin Bad Loss on Airmen
The Niagara Falls Expos topped the Alameda Airmen by the score of 11-2, with the largest share of the credit going to designated hitter Dave Vansant. Vansant was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for the Expos. Michael Fillmore got the win, improving to 1-8. He worked 6.1 innings, giving up 2 runs on 11 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. The Expos now have a record of 22-62 with the win over Alameda.

Vansant had a game-changing home run in the top of the sixth. On a first pitch curveball from Nick Joseph, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Expos a 4-1 lead. It was the 5th home run of the year for Vansant.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Alameda manager Juan Salinas. "We got flat-out beat."
