Mets Win, 2-1, at Pittsburgh
The New York Mets had to overcome a fine effort from Pittsburgh pitcher Chris Lincecum II to grab a narrow 2-1 win at PNC Park. Lincecum II went 6.1 innings and allowed 2 runs. Xu-gang Zhou notched his 24th save in 26 chances. The win gives New York a season record of 71-55.

New York used the timely hitting of Jonathan Jenkins to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Mets on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We've got guys willing to do what it takes to win," Jenkins told the New York Herald.
