Mickey Lolich and Steve Carlton get knocked out early in games 1 & 2. Steve Stone hinders out in middle relief by raising his ERA with the Mets to 6.31. The Mets manage to turn 15 baserunners into a whole 3 runs in game 3. Jon Matlack and Skip Lockwood shut down the Cubs (who were probably tired from running the bases in the previous 2 days) to stave off the sweep. Jon Fellows New York Mets "Meet the Mets.
