Shortstop Desi Relaford had 2 base hits and 2 RBI as the Philadelphia Phillies
defeated the New York (NL) Mets by the score of 4 to 1 at Shea
Stadium.
 
Philadelphia went ahead for good in the 2nd inning plating 2 runs utilizing 2
base hits.  Mike Lieberthal led off and keyed the rally when he drew a walk.
Rico Brogna followed and he drew a walk.  After an out was recorded, Bob
Abreu then ripped a single.  Relaford was up next and he doubled which was
good for two runs.  The early run support proved sufficient for Curt
Schilling(1-0) and Philadelphia.  That was all the run support Schilling
required.  Mark Leiter was perfect in relief and gained credit for his 1st
save.  
 
Bobby Jones(0-1) was the losing pitcher.  He surrendered 4 runs and 7 hits in
7 and 2/3 innings.
