After opening their four-game series Thursday with an 18-inning marathon which the Expos won 2-1, the two Florida State League teams went to extra innings again Friday. This time the Expos won 2-1 in 11 innings, and once again John Mello had the game-winning hit with men at first and third and two outs. "Mello is the guy I want up in that situation," Expos manager Felipe Alou said.

"He's got nerves of steel when it comes to making a big play or stealing a big base or getting a big hit." The Mets remain in first place in the East Division, three games ahead of second-place Vero Beach and 4Vi games up on the third-place Expos. "We know it's probably going to be us and (the Mets) when it comes down to the playoffs," Mello said. "They're a very tough team, and they play good fundamental baseball."
