METS BOMB GIANTS 13-1, MCRAE SLUGS 2 HOMERS, METS SWEEP


Brian McRae blasted 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI and Rick Reed had a strong outing as the New York (NL) Mets crushed the San Francisco Giants 13 to 1. San Francisco was out-hit by New York (NL), 19 hits to 4.

Reed(3-0) got credit for the victory, pitching 6 innings and allowing 1 run. Reed got help from Mel Rojas who earned his 1st save. Mark Gardner(0-2) ended up with the loss. He allowed a few too many baserunners giving up 7 hits and 2 walks in 2 innings.

The New York (NL) ballclub's record now stands at a division leading 9-3. With the loss San Francisco now has a record of 6-5.

Brian McRae is our offensive player of the game, going 3-6, 2 runs scored, 3 ribbies with 2 blasts. What a game!!!!!!! "I've never seen anyone so focused at the plate, he looked possessed at the plate like he just wanted to bash the leather right off the ball" Graham said after the game. "We're on a roll right now, but we HAVE to stay focused, that is key"
