The Mets were able to bounce back from yesterday’s deflating loss with a blowout 13-4 rubber game victory over the Athletics in Oakland. The Mets drew first blood in the bottom of the second on a Tyler Naquin RBI single that drove in Pete Alonso, who singled to lead off the inning and was advanced to third on a single by Eduardo Escobar, who went on to collect three hits on the day. Escobar helped plate two more runs in the third inning when he laced an 0-2 pitch for a single with the bases loaded to put the Mets up 3-0.
