Wilson, Mets March to 8-4 Victory
Preston Wilson was a vital contributor to the 8-4 New York victory over San Diego. The Mets right fielder hit 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice. Felix Rodriguez closed out the game, earning his 11th save. New York now sits at 23-32, while San Diego falls to 36-19.

Sean Casey was 2-5 with 2 singles for New York. The 30-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the third. With one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring single off Paul Wilson. It was his 46th hit of the season.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Casey told a New York Observer reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
