LOS ANGELES — Michael Conforto’s month has included a concussion and ricocheted ball off the fence that nailed him in the crotch earlier this week.
So if the Mets outfielder was going to soon experience another first in his major league career, maybe something positive was in order. Tuesday night he got it.
Conforto delivered his first career grand slam, a go-ahead seventh-inning blast, sending the Mets to a 7-3 victory over the Dodgers at Chavez Ravine that ended the team’s six-game road losing streak. In winning for the seventh time in nine games, the Mets reached the one-third point of the season at 27-27.
