J.D. Davis and Michael Conforto both cracked two-run homers to support a solid pitching effort by Steven Matz to lead the Mets to a 9-2 win over the Indians Tuesday night in the first day of a nine-game homestand, all against teams in the heat of the pennant race. The win upped the Mets’ home [...]
