Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the New York Mets got the win.

The New York Mets topped the Bronx Yankees, 4-2, in American League action at Yankee Stadium I. The player of the game was New York pitcher and Boston, Massachusetts native Dick Donovan. The win leaves New York with a record of 5-4.

New York used the clutch hitting of Eric Karros to capture the win. The first baseman drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Mets the lead, 2-1. For the game, Karros had 2 singles and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," Karros told the New York Observer.
