Mets Come Back Late to Top Orioles
Mets first baseman Eric Karros put his stamp on his team's 6-5 win over the Baltimore Orioles. Karros went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for New York in the contest. New York reliever Tom Butters got the win, raising his record to 4-3. Chris Sale was tagged with the loss. New York goes to 40-28. The win puts them 5 games up in their division.

It could have been a different outcome for New York, had it not been for Kirby Puckett, the former first round draft pick . Puckett contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put New York up, 4-3.

"It's a good day to be a fan after a win like that," Puckett told the New York Observer.
