Mays Delivers in Giants 2 1 Win Over Mets on Memorial Day
Willie Mays at age 40 homered to tie the game in the eighth and then scored the decisive run in the 11th as the San Francisco Giants defeated the New York Mets 2-1. Mays also made two sparkling defensive plays in the ninth and his savvy baserunning set up Tito Fuentes’ sacrifice fly for the winner. The Mets led 1-0 on Cleon Jones’ RBI single before Mays’ late heroics.
