Lagares swipes home on double steal vs. Boston

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Juan Lagares stole home to give the Mets the lead in the fourth inning of Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Red Sox at Tradition Field.

On a double-steal attempt, Matt Reynolds took second and Lagares slid under the tag of Red Sox catcher Ryan Hanigan for his third stolen base of the spring.

The steal of home was part of a three-run inning in which the Mets also scored on a wild pitch and a throwing error.
