Cubs Sunk by Mets
The game between New York and Chicago is in the books, despite a little rain.

In a low-scoring tilt between the New York Mets and the Chicago Cubs, 29-year old left-handed pitcher David Peterson was the difference-maker. The New York left-hander spearheaded the 3-2 win. The winner was Peterson. He threw 5.1 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Justin Steele.

The Mets got a big at-bat from shortstop Francisco Lindor. For the game, Lindor went 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the top of the third, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 18th home run of the season gave New York a 2-0 lead.

Peterson said his team "played with determination."

The triumph puts New York at 53-53 for the season.
