Mike Pelfrey continued his second half success story with a complete game 3-hitter. He gave up three runs and had three strikeouts.
The offense came from a variety of sources tonight with Daniel Murphy hitting a two-run single in the first, David Wright with a homer in the fifth, and Fernando Tatis having another multi-hit game going 2 for 4 with an RBI and run scored.
The Mets hold the NL East lead with the Phillies topping the awful Nationals again.
