Win Makes Pirates 89-65
Darryl Strawberry led Pittsburgh to a win over New York. The final score was 8-4. Strawberry scored 2 times, going 4 for 4. He also knocked in 1 RBI. Tom Rowe, credited with the win, is now 8-12. He allowed 4 runs on 11 hits in 9 innings. The Mets, now 98-56, have lost 4 straight.

Pittsburgh relied on the bat of Will Clark to get the win. The first baseman ripped a 2-run double in the top of the third inning to put the Pirates ahead, 3-1. For the game, Clark had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.

"This isn't football or hockey where you can overwhelm your opponents," Clark told the Pittsburgh Daily News. "Everyone gets 27 outs and we happened to make the most of them."
