David Wells (15-2) posts his major league-leading 15th win in Toronto’s 6 – 3 victory over the Montreal Expos. Wells becomes just the second pitcher since 1988 to win 15 games before the All-Star break. The portly ace wins his 13th consecutive game on the road, stretching back to September 7, 1999. His only mistake is serving up a gopher ball to reliever Felipe Lira, who connects for his first major league homer.
