NEW YORK - Pete Alonso homered in consecutive at-bats and tied a career high with six RBIs as the New York Mets withstood a long rain delay and snapped a six-game losing streak Monday night with an 11-2 rout of the Chicago Cubs.
Kodai Senga (8-6) allowed two runs and seven hits in six innings for his first victory since July 5 at Arizona and first at home since May 30 against Philadelphia.
"That's just a complete team win," Alonso said.
In their first home game since trading Justin Verlander, Mark Canha and Tommy Pham at last week's deadline, the Mets (51-61) avoided matching their longest skid this season.
