Ray Burris and Neil Allen combined to pitch the Mets to a 4-2 victory, snapping the Dodgers' three-game winning streak. The Mets, who picked up a run in the second inning, clinched the decision with two tallies in the sixth.

Bill Almon singled, Lee Mazzilli walked and Claudell Washington singled, scoring Almon and sending Mazzilli to third. Mazzilli then scored as Steve Henderson grounded into a double play. [The Sporting News]
