Interesting Notes From Elias

According to the Elias Sports Bureau...GIANTS NOT SO PLUCKYThe Mets held the Giants to exactly three hits in each game of their three-game sweep at Shea Stadium. It was only the third time in franchise history that the Mets have allowed three or fewer hits in three consecutive games. They also did it in a three-game home sweep of the Astros in April 1992, and in the last three games of the 1999 season, beating the Pirates twice and the Reds in a wild card tiebreaker game. The Giants have had three or fewer hits in three straight games only one other time since moving to San Francisco for the 1958 season: May 15-17, 1995, a three-game home series against the Cubs.SCHOENEWEIS FINALLY GETS FIRST METS WINScott Schoeneweis earned his first win in a Mets uniform in his 112th career game for New York.
