=== Montreal Expos Team Report - May 19 === (My Sportsbook) - The Montreal Expos resume a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers tonight in San Juan. Sun-Woo Kim will be on the mound tonight for the Expos. The righthander's only career start versus the Brewers came last Thursday at Miller Park when he was battered for nine hits and seven runs in just 4 2/3 innings of a 7-4 loss. Before jumping to the rotation for the injured John Patterson, Kim had worked 11 2/3 straight scoreless innings of relief. Last night, Zach Day allowed just one run over six innings to earn the win, as the Expos edged the Milwaukee Brewers, 3-2, in the opener of a three-game series at Hiram Bithorn Stadium. This contest marked the start of a 12-game homestand for the Expos, with the first six taking place in Puerto Rico. Tony Batista went 2-for-4 and scored twice for Montreal, which has won a season-high four in a row. Day (3-4) yielded eight hits, walked three and struck out five. He had lost his last three starts. Rocky Biddle recorded the final three outs for his ninth save. Montreal is 11-5 versus Milwaukee since the start of the 2002 season. The Expos have the top fielding percentage in the majors at .989. Montreal already has nearly twice as many wins in May (9) than they had in all of April (5). |
