Multi-HR Game for Sosa in 11-7 Win
New York center fielder Sammy Sosa made his presence felt in the 11-7 Mets triumph over the Baltimore Orioles. Sosa went 2-2 with 2 home runs, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 4 times and driving in 3. The Mets, now 49-30, have won 4 in a row.

It could have been a different outcome for New York, had it not been for Phil Nevin, the top prospect . Nevin contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put New York up, 6-5.

"Nice to put this one in the win column," said Nevin.
