This week, big boy bombs were in effect. Though the bottom of the Mets’ lineup still looks pretty grim these days, all of their good hitters are hitting and all of their power hitters were hitting long balls in bunches this week. In total, the Mets hit 17 home run this week, which is the most in baseball over that span. The Mets’ 46 runs scored this wee were second only to the Rockies—who play their home games at Coors—in the National League. Unsurprisingly, this power barrage resulted in two series wins against the Pirates and the Cardinals.
