The Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets played an exciting game.

The Philadelphia Phillies picked up a win at Citizens Bank Park, defeating the New York Mets, 4-2. Starting pitcher Marvin Rojas was an essential part of his team's success. The Phillies lead the National League East Division by 2½ games.

The Mets had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Phillies going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 27-year old first baseman Mark Vientos came to the plate. Vientos hit a 3-run home run on a first pitch changeup from New York hurler Luis Castillo. It was Vientos's 19th home run of the year.

"I feel like a little kid every time I put the uniform on," said Vientos.
