Washington Senators starter John Burkett pitched effectively against the New York Mets at Shea Stadium. The right-hander spearheaded his team's 8-2 win. The Senators have an impressive 89-53 record.

Albert Belle dealt the Mets a blow in the top of the eighth. Batting with the bases loaded and Washington leading 3-0, Belle, who is tied for 6th in the UL in RBI with 108, hit a 2-2 fastball for a grand slam home run.

"We came out aggressive," said Senators manager Alexander Cumana. "We came out swinging the bats."
