NEW YORK (AP) -- Johan Santana pitched into the eighth inning to earn his 100th win, Carlos Beltran and Ryan Church each hit a two-run homer and the suddenly surging New York Mets beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-1 Sunday night.
Back in the lineup after his second concussion this year, Church capped a five-run third with his shot to right. He finished with a double and three hits for the Mets (28-27), who took three of four from the Dodgers in manager Joe Torre's return to New York, winning consecutive series for the first time since mid-April.
