Mets' Bats Stay Hot, Hit Four Homers to Crush Phillies for Fourth Straight Win
Mets' Offense Explodes in Philadelphia
The New York Mets continued their offensive onslaught on Sunday, hitting four home runs to power past the Philadelphia Phillies 10-3 and secure their fourth consecutive victory.
Francisco Lindor, Jeff McNeil, Mark Canha, and Eduardo Escobar all went deep for the Mets, with Lindor and Canha hitting back-to-back homers in the fourth inning to break the game open.
The Mets' power surge has been a key factor in their recent success. Over their last four games, they have scored 30 runs and hit 10 home runs.
Scherzer Struggles, but Mets' Bullpen Delivers
Despite the offensive fireworks, Mets' starter Max Scherzer had a rough outing, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks in just 3 2/3 innings.
However, the Mets' bullpen came through in a big way, with Seth Lugo, Trevor Williams, and Joely Rodriguez combining to allow just one hit and no runs over the final 5 1/3 innings.
The Mets' bullpen has been a strength all season, with a 3.54 ERA that ranks sixth in the National League.
Mets Move into First Place
With the win, the Mets improved to 36-24 on the season and moved into first place in the National League East, a half-game ahead of the Atlanta Braves.
The Mets have now won 10 of their last 12 games and are playing with a lot of confidence.
The Phillies, meanwhile, have lost four straight and are now 30-30 on the season.
