"collecting four straight hits off King Brandon Nimmo's RBI single plating the last of that streak, which also plated the first run of the night. Mark Vientos' double play could have snuffed out a golden chance to get a crooked number up, but Jeff McNeil ripped a double down the first-base line to score a pair and make it 3-0. Brett Baty made it five in the opening frame with a two-run shot to right, his 17th of the season."
"Francisco Lindor led off the second with his 27th home run of the season, a 382-foot laser that hit the face of the second deck in right field. Two batters later, Pete Alonso mashed his 35th of the season a majestic, 436-foot shot that landed in the first row of the second deck in left. The struggling Cedric Mullins recorded his second home run as a Met since coming over from the Baltimore Orioles at the trade deadline to lead off the fourth."
