The Mets won possibly their best game of the season, overcoming a 6-2 deficit across the final four innings to beat the Rangers by a score of 7-6. Pete Alonso notched the game-winning hit in the top of the ninth to put the Mets ahead, and Edwin Díaz nailed it down in the ninth.
The Rangers bats were cold coming into the night, but Luis Severino could not keep them at bay tonight. Severino got tagged for six runs over 6.1 IP, highlighted by a five-run drubbing in the fifth inning in which he served up two homers, including the first out-of-the-park home run of Wyatt Langford’s career.
