Shea Stadium was the site of a competitive game between the Oakland Athletics and New York Mets.

New York starter Tom Glavine had a strong outing against the Oakland Athletics at Shea Stadium. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 5-3 win. Glavine, the winner, moves to 15-10. He threw 8 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 3 walks.

With two out in the bottom of the seventh, Sammy Sosa had a game-changing hit. The Mets right fielder slammed a 3-run home run off Craig McMurtry, making the score 5-3, New York.

"It was a solid team effort and we'll try to keep this momentum going," Sosa told reporters after the game.

New York goes to 68-62, Oakland to 67-63.
