A rookie at 27 years of age, Mark Bomback allowed only two hits and pitched the Mets to a 2-0 victory, beating the Phillies for the second time in his second start. The Mets decided the outcome at the expense of Randy Lerch when John Stearns doubled and Dan Norman singled for a run in the fourth inning. [The Sporting News]
