Eric Laws was the Expos Game 1 starter, and would allow just 2 runs on five hits over six innings. Laws would leave with the game tied at two compliments of a two run double by Howard McDonald.
While Roberto Martinez was the first reliever out of the pen, he would be the only reliever to give up a run. Bertolameu Henrich (1/3 IP), Ralph Hudson (2/3 IP), and Bill Olson (1 IP) wouldn't allow a run.
The Expos would rally in the seventh when Gonzalo Villarreal led off with a single, followed by back to back walks by Oliver Evans and Bill Dunbar. With the bases loaded we'd get a sacrifice fly by John Bradshaw and a single by Howard McDonald to score a pair of runs.
The Expos would win Game 1 by a score of 4-3 and take the one game lead in the Division Series.
