Tom Seaver Fan Club

August 30, 1986 at Shea Stadium

Mets 6, Dodgers 3  (87-42)

The Mets won for the eleventh time in twelve games by getting to Orel Hershiser early.  By the end of the fourth inning, Hershiser was in the dugout and the Mets had five runs, more then enough to win the game.

Howard Johnson scored two runs and Keith Hernandez and Lenny Dykstra both had two hits.  Rick Aguilera pitched eight quality innings and improved to 7-6.  Roger McDowell pitched a perfect ninth frame to earn his eighteenth save of the season.
