Unsatisfied with their third-place finish (30-25) before the players' strike and their 14-12 record thereafter, the Expos fired Dick Williams and brought in Jim Fanning. By finishing the season 16-11, he led the team to a first-place finish in the NL East, marking the Expos' only playoff appearance in their 36-year history in Montreal.
