The losing pitcher was Dennis Martinez(10-13). New York NL now has a record of a division leading 91-56. With the loss, Montreal has a record of 3-7 lately, 48-99, worst in the division overall. Game 2 Dwight Gooden hit 2 doubles and had 3 RBI at Shea Stadium as the Montreal Expos lost a heartbreaker to incredible New York NL Mets by the score of 6 to 5.
The deciding run was scored by New York NL in the 9th. After an out was recorded, Darryl Strawberry banged out a single. Kevin McReynolds came next and he drew a walk.

Steve Bivens was reflective after the loss, 'We should have won this one, we just made one too many mistakes. Son-of-a-gun, that added a couple more white hairs on this noggin of mine.' Game 4 The blistering-hot New York NL Mets easily topped the Montreal Expos; the final score was 12 to 6.
