PITTSBURGH — Luis Torrens had three hits, including a three-run double, and Edwin Diaz got the save after his 10-game suspension ended earlier in the day as the New York Mets defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2 on Saturday.
Torrens hit his double in the third inning to the deepest part of the park at the 410-foot sign in left-center to break a scoreless tie. The catcher also singled twice as the Mets snapped a three-game losing streak.
A night earlier, Torrens was used in mop-up relief in the Mets' 14-2 loss to the Pirates.
"Anytime I can contribute to the team both offensively and defensively, I'm happy to do that," Torrens said.
