In their final home game of the 2021 season, the Mets topped the Marlins 12-3 in a sloppy game, and sent the Flushing faithful home happy one final time this year.
Making his last start of the season, and most likely his last start as a Met and potentially his career, Rich Hill pitched five innings, striking out six batters, and allowing three runs. Hill’s performance on the night earned him his first win as a Met, which he said meant a lot to him.
At the plate, the Mets got on the board in the second inning thanks to a Pete Alonso solo home run, his 36th of the season, and his 90th RBI of the season.
