Brian Joura Mets360: "The star of the day was Francisco Lindor, who hit a 3-run homer in the seventh inning, a moon shot over the pool area. And as big as that was, he made a great play in the ninth inning that might have been even better, corralling a one-hop throw on a stolen base attempt and getting the tag down for the out. Pete Alonso provided the other two runs for the Mets, with his ninth homer of the season."
Mike Puma NY Post: Mets hold on to beat Diamondbacks afterFrancisco Lindor, Pete Alonso provide jolt. “Griffin Canning had a fourth straight outing in which he allowed one earned run or less, but continued his trend of pitching only five innings.”
