The Mets win what turns out to be a close one as the Phillies come back from a 7-2 deficit to score three in the ninth before losing 7-5. The best news of the day for NY fans was Mike Piazza's four for five day. The catcher's big hit was a three run homer in the 8th to give the Mets their eventual margin of victory. Mike had fallen below the Mendoza line, but raised his average 33 points to finish the day at .231.
