Puckett, New York Start Divisional Series Strong with Home Win
The New York Mets started the Divisional Series in style today, downing the visiting Baltimore Orioles at Shea Stadium by a score of 8-5 to stake an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Mets center fielder Kirby Puckett was named player of the game after he went 2-4 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

Jose Ramirez hit a 2-run double off Eddie Watt in the bottom of the sixth, which put the Mets in front, 6-4. In addition to the double, Ramirez had 1 single, while going 2 for 4.

"The vibe's good," said New York manager Jamie Dagostini. "We've got to keep it going."

The next game is scheduled for tomorrow. Slated to start are Mat Latos for Baltimore and Jay Tibbs for New York.
