The Philadelphia Phillies defeated the New York Mets by the score of 9-5. Mike Schmidt starred for Philadelphia, going 2-for-5 with 2 home runs.

Philadelphia relied on the hitting of Steve Dillard to pick up the win. The second baseman ripped a bases-clearing triple in the top of the seventh inning to put the Phillies on top, 8-4. For the game, Dillard had 1 triple and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Even warm beer tastes good after a win," said Schmidt.
