It has become a given with these Mets. They will fight. No matter the circumstances, no matter the deficit, they will summon a charge.
That's how it has played out throughout their longest winning streak in seven years. And Wednesday night proved to be no exception, when the Mets beat the Braves. 3-2, for their 10th victory in a row.
For just the ninth time in franchise history, the Mets have a double-digit winning streak. It is their first since 2008.
It came thanks to Lucas Duda's go-ahead single in the eighth inning. It was set up by a daring hit-and-run, in which Juan Lagares sneaked a single through the hole to move Curtis Granderson to third.
