Phil Giggie

Phil Giggie I was only able to attend two Expos games in my life .... one in 1969 (we were living in Granby for our last summer) sitting on the first base line at Jarry Park watching Rusty Staub hit a home run into the pool in left field ... the other at Olympic Stadium in 1997 -- a game for which nothing is memorable except the memory that the end was near. There was nothing to compare an entire nation rooting for the lone canadian MLB franchise and little but bitter-sweet memories of great players who were never able to make it all the way. When the Blue Jays won their back-to-back World Series in 1992-1993 we were living in the Toronto area and I remember being so happy that a canadian team had won, but still wishing my beloved Expos had fared better when they were able. Although it will never happen, I can't help but dream of another franchise moving to Montreal to finish up what the Expos could not. Great memories ... thanks for the site!

Paul O'Kane

Paul O'Kane I went to my first game in 1970 with my Father, the Dodgers beat Montreal 4-1 but I got to see Rusty Staub hit a triple and from that day on, my love affair with Montreal never waivered. I was lucky enough that my Father's company had box seats behind home plate at Jarry Park and we normally sat right behind Jacques Plante which was an added bonus.
Saw John Boccabella hit two homers in the same inning against Houston in 1973, Cahrlie Lea's no hitter in 1981 and Joe Hesketh break his ankle against the Dodgers in 1985(??)
I moved to Ottawa in 1981 and my buddies and I never missed a home opener from 1986-2003
1994 was obviously a special year but personally for me, as a 15 year old, 1979 was beautiful and 1987 inspiring. If anyone remembers, 1987 Montreal was a team that was not supposed to do anything at all. They started out 0-5, the Rock came back at the end of Sept and hit the gamre winning grand slam at Shea. They went 91-66 the rest of the way and once again, captured out hearts

Paul E. Greenberg

Paul E. Greenberg MY EXCHANGE WITH STAN KASTEN, NAT'S PRES

Stan:
It is a wonderful thing to honor one's heritage and the Washington Nationals seem to have a very well developed sense of DC baseball history. But that is only part of their baseball past. The other part relates to their Montreal roots. It would be a memorable and fitting thing to honor the rich legacy of baseball in Montreal, where Jackie Robinson first broke the color barrier, by setting aside a piece of your brand new ballpark to erect a monument to the Montreal Expos. History is a building block; ignoring the Expos weakens the Nationals foundation, but recognizing it would enrich Nationals Nation with new citizens like myself.

Paul,



Thanks for writing. I'm afraid there are no plans at the moment to implement the changes you've suggested. But we will always keep an open mind about improvements and additions for the future.

Perhaps the Nat's should play a game in Olympic Stadium
in Montreal I admit most Montreal fans arfe angry at MLB and the carpetbaggers that stole our team. It doesn't look like they are drawing that well in DC

Michael Mc Vey Daniel Vaillancourt, Luc Gagnon, Serge Beaudry, Michael Mc Vey and a few others went down for a Saturday, Sunday game to see the the Montreal Expos in Philadelphia. We were photographed after the game above the Expos dugout after the Expos won the three game weekend series. The photographer and reporter were from the Montreal Gazette. What a weekend. September 28th, 1980.

Martin Cirino

Martin Cirino I have two daugthers aged 14 months and 7 years and there's nothing I would have loved more than go take them to an Expos game. But... too little, too late... I remember my dad taking me to the Big "O" from '79 to '86, then going with my buddies, especially during '93 and '94, when the Expos actually had a shot at going all the way if not for the stupid strike. I always said it was collusion on the part of the american based teams. They probably did not want to see another canadian team win the World Series for a thrid straight years (the Jays won in '92 and '93).

Let's go Expos!!!

Well, at least I'll take my eldest to see a LBEQ game in Repentigny this summer since I live in PAT. ;)

You might find a cheap copy around Montreal's 2nd book store but look at abebooks.com or alibris.com. I doubt it will be cheap. Good luck.

When Pedro Martinez won the world series with the Boston Red Sox in 2004, he had some touching words for all Montreal Expos fans who almost won it all in 1994.
Jean-François Bastien

Jean-François Bastien S'il n'y avait pas eu de grève, les Expos auraient été champions du monde en 1994 et tout l'avenir aurait changé. On n'aurait pas échangé les vedettes de l'équipe. Ça fait déjà 15 ans et j'ai encore de la difficulté à le digérer. Eh oui, c'est du passé, il est temps que je fasse mon deuil, on ne peut plus rien changer.

The corridor between Pie IX Station and Olympic Stadium is almost completely deserted. Based on some of the crowds that came out to the Big O in 2004, the final season for Major League Baseball in Quebec, it almost seems the Expos never left. ...
