He threw 7.1 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 9 and giving up 2 walks. New York has 3 straight wins, Washington 5 straight losses.

Gary Sheffield, who led the UL in OPS with .966 in 1989, aided the New York cause with a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the second. For the game, the shortstop went 1 for 3 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3.

"I tried to mix it up, keep them off balance," said Garrelts.
