Mets Nip Cubs, 3-2
New York starter Thomas Hershiser had a strong outing against the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 3-2 win. The Mets saw their win-loss record go to 68-91. At the same time, the Cubs fell to 68-91.

New York used the timely hitting of César López to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Mets on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Thomas made his pitches," said New York manager Shane Victorino.
