1982 World Series Game 1 - "Hawk Soars"

GAME 1 - 10/15/82
Stadie Olympique'
J.Morris vs Rogers
Expos 7, Tigers 2
 


The presumptive 1982 NL Cy Young Award winner, Steve Rogers, went the distance to complete the circuit and stake Les Expos to a 1-0 series lead.  The marquee matchup vs Jack Morris never really occurred as Montreal rang up 7 runs (6 earned) off of Morris.  After 3 1/2 innings of play the Expos clung to a 3-2 lead, but Rogers locked the door for the final 5 and the the Expo bats heated up.  The Hawk, Andre Dawson (3-4) knocked in 3 thanks to a double and a homer.  DH Jerry White also went deep.
Expos lead series 1-0
