8/3 Game 2

Another doubleheader sweep by the Mets this season, as we wallop the MTL Expos 11-3 in the 2nd game of the day @ Shea Stadium.
Dr. K goes the distance, giving up 3 runs on 6 hits, while striking out 7!
But it was the lineup that gave the good doctor, LOTS of run support.
The Straw hits TWO dingers today, his 17th and 18th, and even Dykstra got into the act, hitting his 5th HR on the year!
Twice, the Expos walked Mookie Wilson to get to Dwight Gooden, and twice, Dr. K hit TWO RBI singles to help his own cause.
People forget that Gooden could hit as well as pitch.
We sweep the Expos, and have now won 7 in a row!
Next UP: A 5-game series against the Chicago Cubs @ Wrigley Field.

RP: 63-38
RL: 69-32 (4-3 Win vs MTL) -6
