NEW YORK (AP) — Dwight
Evans and Dave Henderson hit
home runs in Boston’s 18-hit attack
that spoiled the pitchers’ duel that
never was, and the Red Sox com
pleted a sweep of the first two games
of the World Series at New York by
beating the Mets 9-3 Sunday night.
It was a matchup of two of the
game’s best pitchers, 24-game win
ner Roger Clemens of Boston and
last year’s National League Cy
Young winner, Dwight Gooden of
New York. But neither pitcher was
around after five innings as the of
fenses took over, with Boston outhit-
ting the Mets 18-8.
The Red Sox, series underdog
now take a 2-0 lead in games in
best-of-seven series back to Fenway
Park in Boston, where the next three
games are scheduled. Only Kansas
City last year has ever lost the first
two games at home and come back to
win the series.
Dennis “Oil Can” Boyd, 16-10
during the season, was scheduled to
face former Red Sox pitcher Bob
Ojeda, 18-5, a left-hander, in Game
3 Tuesday night.
Henderson, the hero of Boston’s
Game 5 playoff victory with a ninth
inning homer, hit a solo homer in
the fourth inning off Gooden, and
Evans hit a two-run shot in Gooden’s
last inning, the fifth, as the Red Sox
took a 6-2 lead. The Red Sox scored
two more runs in the seventh on five
consecutive singles off Rick Aguilera
to put the game away. Wade Boggs’
RBI double in the ninth ended the
scoring.

Clemens, who failed to go five in

The Mets, who hit just .189 in the

NEW YORK (AP) — Baseball, the
Summer Game, at World Series
time.
Fans bundled in parkas. Umpires
wearing thick gloves. Infielders
blowing on their hands, trying to get
warm.
“We might as well get used to it,”
New York Mets second baseman
Wally Backman said. “It’s not going
to get any warmer.”
Remember that romantic vision of
the World Series, kids skipping
school and businessmen taking the
day off, just to watch a ballgame on a
cool fall afternoon?
Forget it. Those days are gone.
The World Series is now downright
cold.

“You might not notice it as much
because you’re in a World Series,”
Boston outfielder Dwight Evans
said. “But if that had been a regular
season game against Cleveland or
somebody, you’d be freezing.”
With the start of baseball’s billion-
