BALTIMORE (AP) — Kevin Plawecki hit his first career grand slam during a nine-run sixth inning, Brandon Nimmo went 5 for 5 with three RBIs and the New York Mets breezed past the Baltimore Orioles 16-5 on Wednesday night.
Todd Frazier homered and drove in four runs to help the Mets earn a split of the two-game interleague series. New York finished 1-3 this season against the Orioles, who own the worst record in the majors.
A home run by Wilmer Flores in the ninth enabled the Mets to reach a season high in runs.
