Francisco Alvarez's solo shot, part of a seven-run inning, sealed the Mets' 8-4 win over Atlanta, propelling them to second in the NL East and top wild-card spot.
New York, once trailing Atlanta by 10 games on June 2, quickly turned the tables, overtaking their rivals after just 54 days to claim the top wild-card position.
The sudden resurgence has brought the Mets to 55-48 with a five-game winning streak, sparked by significant offensive contributions and crucial wins against Atlanta.
Following Kodai Senga's injury and potential return to the IL, the Mets are expected to explore the starting pitcher market to address rotation concerns before the trade deadline.
