<div class="pre">San Francisco (24-25) at NY Mets (32-17) 7:10 pm EDT</div>

FLUSHING, New York (Ticker) - The New York Mets seek theirfourth win in a row when the San Francisco Giants come callingin the opener of a three-game series Tuesday.

New York sends Oliver Perez (6-3, 2.54 ERA) to the hill. He goesfor his fourth straight win after tossing strong inningsof a 3-0 triumph at Atlanta last Wednesday.

As one of the Mets biggest surprises this season, Perez won fourconsecutive decisions from May 21-June 11, 2005 as a member ofthe Pittsburgh Pittsburgh. But if the lefthander is tocontinue his stellar campaign he has to overcome his 0-4record against the Giants.

David Wright and Carlos Delgado each had an RBI in Sunday's 6-4victory as New York completed a three-game series sweep of theFlorida Marlins this past weekend.

San Francisco will give the ball to rookie Tim Lincecum (2-0,3.08), who allowed two runs and five hits through eight framesin a 4-2 win vs. Houston on Tuesday.

The righthander has an impressive 1.64 ERA with 20 strikeouts in22 innings over his last three outings.

Giants slugger Barry Bonds enters nine homers behind Hall ofFamer Hank Aaron on the all-time list at 746. However, Bondshas not homered in his last five trips to Shea Stadium.
