METS LOSE ALFONZO FOR 10 GAMES- HUSKEY FOR 15, FALL TO CUBS IN FINAL GAME OF HOMESTAND.


At Shea Stadium the Chicago (NL) Cubs easily handled the New York (NL) Mets in 10 innings by the score of 7 to 3.Chicago (NL) finished with 12 hits while New York (NL) ended up with 6.

Terry Adams(1-2) picked up the victory, allowing 3 runs in 1 and 1/3 innings. Cory Lidle(1-2) was hit with the loss in relief. He surrendered 4 runs and 5 hits in 1 inning.

The Mets forced extras in the bottom of the 9th by scratching across 3 runs, and fought to the bitter end, but the bench was to depleted with injuries and the comeback falls short. The Mets took the first 3 games but the sweep wasnt in the cards folks.

"I'm proud of our team....we could have given up, but we fought. The loss is a loss but we played hard and thats the mentality we need" Graham said after the game. "Injuries are gonna hurt us over the next week, we lost some big guys; were gonna need some people to step up"
