Eaton, Phillies look to sweep Mets

Sep 16, 2007 - 1:58 PM Philadelphia (79-69) at NY Mets (83-64) 1:10 pm EDT

FLUSHING, New York (Ticker) - Adam Eaton and the Philadelphia Phillies will once again attempt to sweep away the New York Mets.

Eaton and the Phillies aim to complete a second sweep of the Mets in the past month in the finale of a three-game series on Sunday.

Philadelphia rallied from behind for a major league-leading 45th time in its 5-3 win over New York on Saturday. The victory moved the Phillies to within 4 1/2 games of the Mets in the National League East and one game behind the San Diego Padres in the wild card.

Second place Philadelphia, which has won seven straight vs. New York following a four-game sweep from August 27-30, send Eaton (9-9, 6.31 ERA) to the mound.

The righthander also has had success vs. New York, going 5-0 with a 2.08 ERA in six career starts including two wins this season. However, Eaton is 0-3 in his last seven starts.

New York counters with Oliver Perez (14-9, 3.42), who has won four of five outings.

However, the lefthander is 1-3 with a 4.97 ERA in seven career starts against the Phillies - including 0-2 this season.

The Mets, who have lost three of four, are 6-11 vs. the Phillies in 2007.
