Streaking Mets Win Another One
The Washington Senators got a superb performance from left fielder Ernie Young. Still, it wasn't enough to beat New York. The Mets won the game, 11-10. In spite of the loss, Young was named the player of the game. He was 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. New York reliever Jim Bullinger was the winner. His record is now 2-3. Kevin Millwood took the loss. Darren Holmes, credited with the save, is now 5 for 5 in save opportunities.

Also having an impact was center fielder Sammy Sosa, who stroked a grand slam home run in the bottom of the fifth for New York. For the game, Sosa went 2 for 5 with a home run and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored once.

Sosa told a New York Chronicle reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.

New York has now won 7 in a row.
