On a cold afternoon at Citi Field, the Mets beat the Marlins with ease, extending their winning streak to six games in the process. After falling behind in the top of the first, they evened things up one run at a time before taking the lead and breaking the game open in the middle innings, winning 10-5 in the end.
Clay Holmes put the Mets in an early hole as he struggled to find the strike zone in the top of the first. With two outs and a runner on first, Holmes walked back-to-back batters to load the bases and served up a two-run single to Liam Hicks.
