The Mets erupt for an uncharacteristic offensive outburst, crushing the Cubs, 17 – 1, their most runs in two years.

With David Wright driving in 5 runs, those four players combine for all 17 RBI. Jon Niese is the beneficiary of all that offense, while Jeff Samardzija is charged with the loss.

Small consolation, the Yanks win the game, 5 – 4.
