Zeile hits go-ahead home run

Todd Zeile broke a 2-2 tie in the top of the 10th inning on a solo home run off Reds reliever Scott Sullivan in front of 22,664 fans at Cincinnati's Cinergy Field. It was Zeile's 18th long ball of the season, and it kept the Mets one game behind the division-leading Atlanta Braves in the NL East. Armando Benitez pitched a scoreless bottom of the 10th to earn his 37th save of the season.
