The Mets were this close to playing spoilers to the Rangers division and playoff hopes. It seemed like they were about to do so, behind solid starting pitching by Tylor Megill and home runs by Brandon Nimmo and D.J. Stewart, to pad the Mets to an early 3-0 lead. Megill might've pitched his best game [...]
Lindor kept his hitting streak alive
After playing a bunch of blowout-type games recently, the Mets played a nail-biter on Tuesday, falling to the Braves, 3-2, to even the series at a game apiece. Tylor Megill started and allowed 3 ER in 4.2 IP, which is a 5.79 ERA. And he was incredibly fortunate to give up just the three runs. [...]
The Mets brought their hitting shoes with them to Atlanta, as they pounded out 14 hits, including three home runs, and downed the Braves, 10-4, Monday night in the first of a three-game set. David Peterson was staked to a three-run lead early, as DJ Stewart and Rafael Ortega both went deep in the second [...]
Let’s be honest – we both knew the Mets weren’t going to win today and complete the sweep. The only mystery was how the team was going to come up short. And honestly, Buck Showalter leaving Carlos Carrasco in too long and Trevor Gott throwing gasoline on the fire was a little trite. I expected [...]
Kodai Senga allowed just two hits over seven innings and the Mets hit three home runs en route to a 13-2 laugher over the Cardinals Saturday night in St. Louis. The victory gives the Mets the series win and they’ll go for the sweep tomorrow afternoon. The Mets gave Senga an early lead on another [...]
The Mets recalled Joey Lucchesi to give Kodai Senga an extra day of rest between starts. Lucchesi had been on the IL and made two brief rehab starts with Brooklyn. But he came up and did a very nice job, helping lead the Mets to a 7-1 win over the Cardinals Friday night in St. [...]
Pete Alonso homered to back a strong outing from Jose Quintana, leading the Mets to a 4-2 win over the Cardinals in the opening of a four-game series in St. Louis Thursday night. It was the fourth win in the last five games for the Mets. Alonso hit his 37th homer of the season in [...]
DJ Stewart hit two home runs to power the Mets to an 8-3 win over the Pirates Wednesday afternoon at Citi Field. The victory gave the Mets the series win. This may seem like a laugher but it was good defense that kept the Mets in the game early. Pete Alonso made two diving stops, [...]
It’s tough to give up double digit walks and win. And the Mets allowed 10 BB and fell to the Pirates, 7-4, Tuesday night at Citi Field. In addition to the 10 walks, the Pirates also had nine hits and two HBPs. And as crazy as it may seem, this was a 1-1 game after [...]
The Mets got to face another stiff pitcher and responded by scoring runs in the first six innings of the game, tying a home record set by the 1987 squad. The end result was a 7-2 win over the Pirates, in the first of three at Citi Field. Carlos Carrasco started for the Mets and, [...]
The Mets rallied from three runs down to take a four-run lead and held on for a 7-6 win over the Braves Sunday night in Citi Field. The win allowed them to avoid a four-game sweep. The Mets used a six-run fifth inning to build a 7-3 lead. The Mets sent 11 batters to the [...]
