The New York Mets (45-54) and the Montreal Expos (53-46) will end the regular season in Montreal. The Expos are 6-4 in 10 games against the Mets this year. The Mets go with RHP Jeremy O'Kelley, the 27 year old is 3-3 with 5 saves, a 3.83 ERA in 23 games including 14 starts. The Expos will go with RHP Joey Caputo, the 25 year old has struggled this year at the MLB level going 0-2 with a 12.86 ERA in 6 games (7 IPs) but he was 7-3 with a 3.08 ERA in 15 AAA starts. There are just under 35200 here today.

For the 2nd game in a row, it took a 3-run HR from rookie CF Alex Gomez to make the difference. This time instead of waiting for a walk-off in the 9th, he got the job done in the 8th. Gomez is now hitting .278 with 2 HRs and 6 RBIs in 11 games. Last year Gomez was in AA for the Expos where he hit .317 with 5 HRs and 27 RBIs in 58 games. It looks like Gomez could be a regular with the Expos in 1979.

Expos RHP Dave Frame gets the win for his work in the 7th, he is now 1-0 for Montreal. Expos brought in CL Aidan Beasley for the 9th and he faced the minimum for his 28th save.

Montreal goes into the post season with a 4-game win streak.
