					| Mets Lose Again, 5-2, to Cubs |  
					| The Chicago Cubs downed the New York Mets, 5-2. The hitting star was shortstop Yasuhide Kasahara. Kasahara went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs. Chicago pitcher Josh MacQueen got the win. He's now 1-2. Brent Garland was tagged with the loss. George Poirier was credited with the save for Chicago, his 2nd of the season. 
 With Chicago leading 1-0 in the top of the third, Kasahara hit a fastball from Billy McIntyre for a 3-run  home run. It was his 4th home run of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 4-0.
 
 "It's always nice to be on the winning side," Kasahara told the Chicago Gazette. "But we take nothing for granted."
 
 The defeat makes New York 14-15.
