New York (N) Beats New York (A), 3-2
Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the New York (N) Mets got the win.

In a low-scoring contest between the New York (N) Mets and the New York (A) Yankees, Don Drysdale was the X factor. The New York (N) right-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. Bill Gogolewski picked up the save, his 22nd.

Mike Schmidt, who won the Rookie of the Year Award in 1991, chipped in a 2-run home run for New York (N) in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"We try to keep the mood light around here," said Drysdale. "Winning helps."

The Mets now have a mark of 59-37.
