Carlton pitched another strong game, giving up only two runs in seven innings, but it would not be enough to defeat the Mets on this day. Ray Burris pitched 7-1/3 shutout innings and Neil Allen picked up the save as the Mets blanked the Phillies 3-0. This loss dropped the Phillies under .500 for the season.

 

Phils' Record: 4-5

Place: Tied for 3rd with the Expos, 2½ games behind the Pirates.
