Meteoric Mets Cap Perfect Homestand with Walk-off Thriller
The New York Mets extended their winning streak to six, sealing a perfect homestand with a dramatic 5-4 victory against the Philadelphia Phillies in 10 innings.
Walk-off Wonders
{"Luis Torrens’ two-run single in the 10th inning," said Mets manager Carlos Mendoza, "was a testament to his fighting spirit and our team’s never-say-die attitude."}
Torrens, who Mendoza has shown faith in, rewarded his manager with the clutch hit, securing the victory and a sweep of the three-game series.
Vientos of Change
Pete Alonso and Dominic Smith homered as part of a three-run seventh inning rally, keeping the Metz alive after the Phillies took the lead in the ninth. But the real spark came from J.D. Davis and Mark Vientos.
Davis had three hits and two RBIs, while Vientos continued his hot streak, delivering two hits and an RBI. "Vientos is showing signs of life," noted Newsday, "and we’re loving it."
Phillies’ Frustration
"We got swept," said Phillies manager Joe Girardi, "Now we just have to flush this series, quick as possible."
- The Phillies, despite a strong start, dropped all three games, left to reflect on missed opportunities and a second straight series loss.*
Mets Momentum
The Mets, meanwhile, couldn’t be in a better place. With a perfect 6-0 homestand, they’re now 10-4, leading the NL East.
Looking Ahead
The Mets head to Atlanta for a four-game set, while the Phillies host the Miami Marlins.
