Mets Slip Past Montreal, 5-4
Montreal got a decent performance from pitcher Ryan Rupe, but it wasn't enough to beat the New York Mets. New York won the Shea Stadium 1979-2008 contest, 5-4. Rupe threw 6.2 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. New York reliever Armando Benitez was the winner. His record is now 3-2. Antonio Osuna took the loss. LaTroy Hawkins, credited with the save, is now 2 for 5 in save opportunities.

Mike C Darr drew 1 walk in 4 plate appearances for New York. The 27-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring walk off Antonio Osuna. It was his 16th walk of the season.

"Hard work doesn't always translate into wins," said Darr philosophically. "Things fell right for us today."

The win puts New York at 84-72 this season.
