With 6-1 Win, Mets Improve to 71-41
New York Mets starter Jose Vega was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-1. Vega picked up the win for New York, going 6.1 innings. He gave up 1 run on 5 hits. He now sports a record of 10-5. Pittsburgh's current losing streak is now 5 games.

The Pirates had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Mets going into the bottom of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the slick-fielding third baseman Melchor Sovrivilla came to the plate. Sovrivilla hit a 2-run double on a first pitch curveball from Pittsburgh hurler Sam Richardson. It was Sovrivilla's 7th double of the year.

"This game will humble you real quick," said Pittsburgh manager Michael Jank.
