Mets 5, Pirates 2  (107-54)

The Mets finshed their doubleheader sweep over the Pirates with another good outing by their starter.  Rick Aguilera won his tenth game as he held the Pirates to two runs (one earned) on three hits in five innings of work.  Roger McDowell held the Pirates hitless in the final three frames to earn his 22nd save of the season.

Ray Knight had three hits, and RBI and a run and two other Mets had two hits.  In all, the game could have been a blow out because the Mets stranded 13 men on base.
