August 19, 1986 at Dodger Stadium

Mets 6, Dodgers 4  (79-41)

The Mets jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead in the second only to see it completely disappear by the end of the third inning.  Fortunately they put two more runs on the board while Ron Darling and the Mets pen held the Dodgers scoreless the rest of the way.

Kevin Mitchell hit his eleventh homerun of the season and drove in two runs.  Mookie Wilson went two for five with two RBIs and Ron Darling helped out his own cause by getting two hits and scoring twice.

Ron Darling improve to 12-4 with seven solid innings of work.  Roger McDowell held the Dodgers to one hit in the final 1 2/3 innings to walk away with his fourteenth save of the season.
