Multi-HR Day for Elliott as Mets Overpower Royals, 8-4
The New York Mets knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 8-4, at Shea Stadium. Bob Elliott, who captured player of the game honors, was a big reason New York won. The right fielder hit 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice. The first-place Mets, at 60-38, now lead their division by 7½ games.

Elliott had a big at-bat with runners on 2nd and 3rd in the bottom of the fifth inning, when he grounded out, driving in 1 run. The Mets went on to win.

"We've got a great group of guys," Elliott said, "and we're having fun right now."
