Ojeda’s 7 Hits Help Mets Take Phillies, 6-0

PHILADELPHIA — Bob Ojeda scattered seven hits for New York’s second straight shutout over the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Mets gained their fifth victory in six games, winning 6-0 today.

Gary Carter had his first four-hit game since Sept. 23, 1987, raising his average from .116 to .152 with two doubles and two singles. Darryl Strawberry homered for the second consecutive game, a two-run drive that capped a five-run fifth inning.

Ojeda, 8-9, won his third consecutive decision. He walked three and struck out one in his second shutout of the season and fourth complete game. He got out of a bases-loaded, no-outs situation in the fourth and got Bob Dernier on a bases-loaded groundout to end the game.

Dennis Cook, 5-5, gave up eight hits and six runs in 5 2/3 innings, but four runs were unearned because of third baseman Charlie Hayes’ error in the fifth.

Carter doubled to lead off the inning and scored on Kevin Elster’s single for a 2-0 lead. Two outs later, Hayes threw wildly on Juan Samuel’s grounder and Elster scored to make it 3-0.

Tim Teufel hit an RBI double and Strawberry followed with his 25th home run, a drive off the right-field foul pole.

Samuel hit his 11th home run of the year in the first inning.
