Iron Horse turns Doc into the Lou-ser

GAME 2 - Yankee Stadium
Herb Pennock vs Dwight Gooden
Yankees 11, Mets 2Lou_Gehrig3
Doc must have been out all night bindging, because he put in a pitiful 3+ inning performance.  Murder's Row scored three runs in 3 of the first 4 innings to make this a laugher.  The Iron Horse went 3 for 5 with 2 RBI's and 3 runs scored.  Ruth had an off day (1-5), but that didn't matter one bit as the Bronx Bombers lit up the scoreboard with 11 runs on 17 hits and surprisingly no homers.  Pennock would go 8 and give up 3 before leaving for a pinch hitter in the 8th.  The Amazin's posted 9 hits, but couldn't score until the 7th when they posted 2 meaningless runs.  Kevin Mitchell went 3 for 4, but never found home.
Yankees lead series 2-0
