The New York Mets continue to dominate on the field, securing their 10th win in 11 games with a 3-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
The Mets started off strong, with pitcher Marcus Stroman leading the way with six solid innings, allowing only two runs and striking out six batters. However, it was the team’s offense that truly shined, with a late rally in the eighth inning that sealed the win.
The Blue Jays put up a good fight, with pitcher Hyun Jin Ryu also delivering a strong performance, allowing only one run in seven innings. But it was not enough to stop the Mets’ relentless offense.
The game was tied at 2-2 going into the eighth inning, but the Mets quickly took the lead with a two-run homer from Pete Alonso. This was Alonso’s 25th home run of the season, solidifying his position as one of the top hitters in the league.
The Blue Jays attempted to make a comeback in the ninth inning, but the Mets’ bullpen held strong, with closer Edwin Diaz securing his 20th save of the season.
This win marks the Mets’ 10th victory in their last 11 games, propelling them to the top of the National League East division. The team’s impressive performance has been a result of strong pitching and consistent hitting, with players like Alonso, Francisco Lindor, and Michael Conforto leading the way.
The Mets’ manager, Luis Rojas, praised his team’s resilience and determination, stating, “We never give up, we always believe we can win. That’s the mentality we have in this clubhouse.”
The Blue Jays, on the other hand, have now lost four games in a row and are struggling to keep up in the competitive American League East division.
The Mets will look to continue their winning streak as they face the Blue Jays again tomorrow, while the Blue Jays will aim to bounce back and end their losing streak. With both teams hungry for a win, it is sure to be an exciting game for fans to watch.
