NEW YORK, 26 June 2005 — Even Pedro Martinez is beating the New York Yankees.

Martinez dominated for eight innings, Cliff Floyd and Carlos Beltran homered and the Mets hit four sacrifice flies in a 6-4 Subway Series victory Friday.

Ramon Castro, Jose Reyes and Mike Cameron set a National League record by hitting three sacrifice flies in the second inning, a rally fueled by a pair of errors. Reyes added another sacrifice fly in the ninth.

Mets manager Willie Randolph got a victory in his first trip back to Yankee Stadium, where he won two World Series titles as a player and four more as a coach. Mike Mussina (8-5) failed to revive the on-and-off Yankees, who have lost four of five after starting their 13-game homestand with six straight wins.

After going 0-3 in his previous six starts against the Yankees, Martinez (8-2) was greeted by a “Still Your Daddy!!” sign hanging from the second deck on the third-base side, a reminder of his frustrations against New York while pitching for the Boston Red Sox last year.
