PIease Ieave your message after the beep.

Hi. It's David. TaIk to you Iater.

Hello?

I aIready received it.

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

So with Brett Butler on third

and KaI DanieIs on first,

Strawberry stands in against David Cone.

Cone leaning in for the sign.

He goes to the stretch.

The pitch on the way,

and it's a Iong high bIast

to right center fieId.

ver the fence and off the scoreboard

at Shea Stadium.

Darryl Strawberry trots it out

around the bases,

and he hits one of those moon shots

that have trademarked his career.

Quite a clout, but maybe too little too late.

A Mets 1 1-0 lead is now 1 1-3.

A three-run homer for Strawberry.

His third home run of the series,

and RBIs 10, 1 1 , and 12.

It's 1 1-3, Mets.

No matter how far Strawberry hits a ball,

he cannot drive in enough runs

to get the Dodgers back in this game.

Strawberry with the moon shot

getting congratuIations

in the Dodger dugout.

That brings ric Davis to the pIate,

and right now aII the Dodgers

want to try and do

is cIose the Mets out,

gain some momentum back

going into Game 5.

If they can make a IittIe noise here,

get some offense going...

Gie her a piece of cake. Mom, you okay?

Hae a little bit of cake.

Hey, Strawberry, want a cup of coffee?

Cone into the windup. Here's the first pitch.

Why don't you come here

and hae a cup of coffee with us.

Davis again stepping out.

Looks for the sign.

Steps back in.

You know, Iet's face it, foIks,

I know they got a ways to go yet.

I know they have a ways to go.

But the Dodgers bIew a match point.

-PossibIe man shot, 1 53...

-I'II teII you something right now.

The first one to get is aIways the hardest

to get when you're down by a Iarge...

Confirmed, man shot. 1 53 Jane Street.

Hey, Veronica, baby, what's going on?

There's a ki somewhere in the back seat.
