NEW YORK — While the New York Mets are finally hitting their stride on the mound, the Philadelphia Phillies are still stumbling at the plate.
Mark Canha homered and drove in four runs to lead Carlos Carrasco and the Mets past the slumping Phillies 4-1 on Wednesday night.
Carrasco (2-2) pitched six efficient innings to win his second consecutive start. He allowed six hits and a walk while striking out four as the Mets (29-27) improved to 15-0 when their starting pitcher goes six innings or more. They're the only unbeaten team in the majors in such games, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
