Sheffield went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for New York in the contest. Tom Glavine, who went 6.1 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 3 runs on 6 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. His record now stands at 11-7. The Mets now have a record of 65-52 with the win over Seattle.

Greg Colbrunn, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1991 draft, aided the New York cause with a run-scoring ground out in the top of the fourth. For the game, the designated hitter went 1 for 4. He drove in 3 runs and scored once.

"We'll savor this win," Sheffield told the New York Citizen, "then get ready for the next game."
