The NL East leading Expos host the Mets again tonight in the second game of their 'home' series in Puerto Rico.
Montreal are playing 22 games this season in sunny San Juan and warmed well to their second home last night when they hammered the Mets 10-0. They are 6-4 overall despite not yet playing a true home game. They are now a perfect 6-0 this season when the temperature is above 40....and a perfect 0-4 when it's below 40! 1997 World Series MVP Livan Hernandez (0-0, 5.4 ERA)gets the start tonight and he will be chasing his first win of the season after a no decision in his Expos debut.
The Mets are just 4-6 thus far having lost three straight and four of five. They really struggled to get anything going last night and registered just two hits....a broken bat single in the fourth and an infield single in the ninth. Overall this season they are hitting just .217. 25 year-old South Korean Jae Seo (0-0, 5.79 ERA) gets his second Major League start tonight after giving up 10 hits in 4 2/3 innings on debut.
Montreal have beaten the Mets in four straight games away from Shea Stadium and tonight we'll take the 'home' Expos to get the win again.
Recommended Play: Montreal -135
