NEW YORK -- Santiago Espinal hit a tie-breaking two-run double in the ninth inning to lift the Cincinnati Reds to a 3-1 victory and snap the New York Mets' nine-game winning streak on Sunday.
Phil Maton (2-3) opened the ninth by plunking Spencer Steer before Ty France legged out an infield single. Both runners advanced a base on Jake Fraley's groundout before Espinal's hit down the left-field line.
The two-run rally ended an 80-inning streak in which the Mets hadn't trailed, the longest streak in the majors this season.
Buck Farmer (3-0) threw a perfect eighth and Alexis Díaz earned his 26th save with a 1-2-3 ninth.
