Mets Bang Out 7-3 Win Versus Oakland
The New York Mets trumped the Oakland Athletics, 7-3, at Oakland Coliseum. New York third baseman Phil Nevin was named player of the game for his performance. He was 1 for 3 with a home run and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. New York has now won 3 in a row.

Momentum swung to the Mets in the top of the fourth, when Nevin, who is tied for 6th in the UL in RBI with 108, hit a 3-run home run. It propelled the Mets into the lead, 4-1.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Nevin told reporters after the game.
