Atlanta 11, Montreal 4 -- Andruw Jones hit a three-run homer in a six-run first inning and Chipper Jones had four RBIs at San Juan, Puerto Rico. Paul Byrd (2-1) gave up three runs, two earned, and 10 hits in seven innings and Atlanta reached .500 for the first time since June 12.

St. Louis 4, Cincinnati 1 -- Edgar Renteria and Scott Rolen drove in two runs each at St. Louis. Jason Isringhausen recorded the last three outs for his 19th save in 23 chances, walking Ken Griffey Jr. and Adam Dunn before striking out Wily Mo Pena to end the game.
