MILWAUKEE (AP) _ Vladimir Guerrero hit a three-run homer and Rondell White nearly hit the ball out of County Stadium as the Montreal Expos scored all their runs in the first two innings of a 10-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night.

The Expos scored five runs in the first and five more in the second against Jason Bere (2-3), who was down 10-0 before getting the first out of the second inning.

White and Chris Widger homered in the first, while Guerrero's three-run shot, his ninth of the year, highlighted the second.

Guerrero went 4-for-5 to improve to .625 (10-for-16) with 10 RBIs in four games against Milwaukee this year.

White's homer was a 435-foot solo shot that clanged off the metal bleachers in left field only two or three rows from the top. Cecil Fielder is the only player ever to clear the bleachers in 47 years of baseball at County Stadium.

Jose Vidro had a two-run double in the first, and White drove in another run with a second-inning single. Widger's homer was a 400-foot, two-run shot slightly to the left of White's blast.

Javier Vazquez (3-0) allowed five hits and struck out eight over seven innings in a smooth performance. He had already batted twice and scored a run before Brewers cleanup hitter Geoff Jenkins got his first at-bat.

Milwaukee has lost 14 of its last 18 games and is 2-6 on a 10-game homestand.

Bere, who allowed 11 hits, nine earned runs and three walks, has lost three of his last four starts. He was left in because the Brewers bullpen has been overused during the homestand.

The Expos allowed a franchise-record 43 runs while being swept in a just-completed three-game series at Coors Field. But it was Montreal's bats doing all the damage in County Stadium, where Brewers have allowed 47 runs in the eight games of their homestand.

Milwaukee scored in the third on an RBI single by Mark Loretta. He missed the Brewers' previous three games with a pulled hamstring.

The Brewers added a run in the ninth when Luis Lopez struck out with two outs and the bases loaded, but reached on Ugueth Urbina's wild pitch.

Notes: Jenkins lost control of his bat while swinging in the second inning, and the flying lumber hit a fan behind home plate. After paramedics examined her, the fan left the building with a splint on her arm. Before his next at-bat, Jenkins was removed for a pinch-hitter. The Brewers said he sprained a finger on his right hand. ... The Expos said reliever Graeme Lloyd will be out 3-4 months after undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery in Los Angeles on Friday. ... John Snyder threw six shutout innings and allowed two hits for the Brewers' Double-A affiliate in Huntsville in his first start of a 30-day rehab assignment. Snyder, acquired from the White Sox in the offseason, suffered strained muscles in his ribcage and stomach during spring training.
