Oliver Perez must have been auditioning for his role in the rotation yesterday; he pitched one of the best games of his career. Perez struck out eight Yankee hitters en route to a 3-1 victory. The Mets officially won the season series against the Yanks, only the second time since Interleague began.
In what was a quiet day for Yankee bats, Wilson Betemit hit a solo homer to score the Yankees only run.
