CINCINNATI -- Yoenis Cespedes hit a go-ahead two-run homer in seventh, one of four home runs hit by the New York Mets in a 5-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday night at Great American Ball Park.
Jose Reyes, Curtis Granderson, and Alejandro De Aza also went deep for New York (73-66).
Cespedes clobbered a 2-2 pitch from right-hander Michael Lorenzen (2-1) to the deepest part of the ballpark in center, putting the Mets ahead 4-3.
Cespedes, the Mets' left fielder, also made a key defensive play when he threw out Brandon Phillips trying for a double to end the bottom of the eighth.
