Astros Win at New York, 9-2
Corey Hart had a good game, but he could not keep the New York Mets from falling, 9-2, to the Houston Astros at Shea Stadium 1979-2008. The New York first baseman was 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 in the loss. The Astros raised their record to 16-8.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Melvin Upton? The Houston center fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Astros on top, 2-1. For the game, Upton had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"We took it on the chin today," said losing manager Ethan Smith.
