The Expos and Athletics opened up the season on Mother's Day in a cold, wet, and windy affair!  The Athletics tossed a no-hit bid into the 4th inning which allowed them to increase their lead.  In the 5th inning the Expos bats would come alive to pile on 9 Hits and finish the game strong.  Next week the A's face the powerhouse Astros while the Expos take on the expansion Red Sox in their first ever matchup.
