"After firing three perfect innings against the Cubs on Wednesday with eight strikeouts, the right-hander entered the dugout in discomfort and headed for the tunnel with the trainer, finished with what the Mets termed right shoulder soreness."

Mets.com: 'Frustrating': deGrom exits with sore shoulder. Mets defeat Cubs after ace strikes out 8 of 9 in 3 innings before departing.

NY Post: Mets lose to Reds 4-1. Homer Bailey pitched out of trouble for eight innings, Jay Bruce hit a three-run homer and the Cincinnati Reds beat the New York Mets 4-1 on Saturday night for their fifth straight victory...New York starter Jonathon Niese (4-3) made one big mistake to Bruce during seven otherwise effective innings. He struck out seven and walked one but lost for the first time in six starts at home this season...Consecutive doubles by Daniel Murphy and Wright put the Mets on the board in the bottom of the first"

NY Post: Vaughn-derful Finish. "If Mo Vaughn had ever hit a bigger home run in his life before last night, he had never done it in New York...the largest crowd to ever watch a Subway Series game at Shea Stadium (55,141)...Vaughn’s three-run missile to right field in the eighth inning off Yankee lefty David Wells catapulted the Mets to a 3-2 victory. It may have turned around an entire season and/or one man’s career."

NY Post: Michael Conforto, Steven Matz propel Mets to a rare victory.

Baseball ReferenceSeemingly asleep for 8 innings, the Mets suddenly wake up in the bottom of the 9th as Carlos Marmol is trying to protect a 3 - 0 lead for the CubsMarlon Byrd starts off the inning with a solo homer, Lucas Duda draws a walk and John Buck singles. Omar Quintanilla bunts both runners into scoring position before Kirk Nieuwenhuis, hitting .097 for the season, connects for a walk-off three-run homer. Marmol is only pitching because closer Kevin Gregg, who has been perfect in 10 save opportunities so far, is unavailable after pitching in the Cubbies' last four games.

Baseball ReferenceThe Braves beat the Mets, 9 - 8, on an anticlimactic play in the 10th inning. After rallying from two runs down in the bottom of the 9th on Brooks Conrad's two-run homer off closer Francisco Rodriguez, the Braves take advantage of a balk by reliever D.J. Carrasco that allows Diory Hernandez to score the winning run. Before coming back, the Braves blow a 6 - 2 lead by giving up a four-run 5th inning to the Mets. Chipper Jones drives in 5 runs, tying a career best.

Baseball ReferenceThe Mets continue their roller-coaster season, winning their 6th in a row with an 8 - 4 decision over Cleveland. All nine Mets starters collect at least one hit and either score or drive in a run. Shelley Duncan, making a rare start in LF for the Indians, helps out with some poor defensive play but does atone himself somewhat with a two-run homer off winner Jon Niese.
