Mets Prevail, 6-5, Over Chicago
Jedd Gyorko had a good game, but he could not keep the Chicago Cubs from falling, 6-5, to the New York Mets at Wrigley Field. The Chicago third baseman went 1-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4 in the loss. New York reliever Steve Cishek picked up the win to move to 4-2. Brent Honeywell suffered the loss. Corey Knebel notched his 20th save in 24 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for New York, had it not been for Ian Happ, the 24-year old center fielder . Happ contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fourth inning to put New York up, 5-4.

"Enjoyed this one," Happ told the New York Citizen. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

New York bumps their record to 61-72 with the win.
