Year: 2024; Game #62; Wednesday, Jun 5; NYM 9 @ WSN 1; boxscore; WP: Severino; LP: Corbin;  Time: 2:06;Day; Attendance: 18,775; Record: 27-35; Standings: 4; Games up/behind: 16.5;W


Brian Joura Mets360: "Luis Torrens blasted two homers to back an excellent outing by Luis Severino, lifting the Mets to a 9-1 victory and a three-game sweep of the Nationals Wednesday in Washington. The Mets pulled to within a half a game of the third-place Nats."


ESPN.com: Torrens hits two homers, Lindor another as Mets beat Nationals 9-1. "The Mets batted around in the sixth inning, sending 10 men to the plate, scoring six times on seven hits, including two home runs and two doubles. They now head to London with their first three game sweep since April 17 against the Pirates, winning five of their last seven."


NY Post: Mets sweep away Nationals before London trip to face Phillies. "After a 1-hour, 25-minute rain delay that could throw off some pitchers, Luis Severino provided both length (a season-high-tying eight innings) and excellence (allowing just one run, seven hits and no walks), again looking like a bargain of a free-agent signing...Severino’s catcher, Torrens, contributed defensively, too, cutting down Jesse Winker trying to steal second for just the Mets’ 10th caught stealing in 79 tries this year."

Year: 2022; Game#56; Sunday  Jun 5 NYM 5 @ LAD 4; boxscore; 10 innings; WP: Lugo; LP: Kimbrel;  Save: Medina; Time: 3:59; DAY; Attendance: 48,672;  Record: 37-19; Standings: 1; Games up/behind: up 8.5; W; Box Score: Mets 5 Dodgers; Mets @ Dodgers Game Notes; 


Mets 360: Mets 5, Dodgers 4 (10 INN) 6/5/22 "The Mets fell behind in the first inning, rallied to take the lead in the eighth, lost it in the ninth, re-took it in the 10th and then had to sweat out a rookie with the go-ahead run at second base" 


NY Post: J.D. Davis’ go-ahead hit sparks Mets’ extra-inning win over Dodgers "This one included more drama than the Mets would have preferred, as Seth Lugo surrendered a homer to Will Smith and a game-tying RBI single to Eddy Alvarez. The Mets regained the lead in the 10th inning on Davis’ RBI double that scored the automatic runner. Adonis Medina got the final three outs for the Mets, stranding the automatic runner at third and the winning run at second."


Metsradamus: Medina And Some Dinner "So that’s a 2-2 record to start the death stretch of 22 games with the Padres coming up next. The good news is that the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim have lost 11 straight games which downgrades their danger. The bad news is that the last three losses were to the Phillies so thanks a whole freakin’ lot."

NY Post: Short-handed Mets drubbed by Diamondbacks. "With Murphy now on the disabled list for at least the next two weeks, Friday night seemed like what could become par for the course for the Mets: a meek showing at the plate in a 7-2 loss to the Diamondbacks at Chase Field...The D’backs broke the game open in the eighth with three runs against Carlos Torres and another against Jack Leathersich after clinging to a 3-2 lead heading into the inning. After four straight clunkers, Niese (L,3-6) was respectable, allowing three earned runs on six hits with one walk and eight strikeouts over six innings."

NY Post: Shoddy defense costs Mets in loss to Nationals. "Ahead 5-4 after Hairston had scored on a wild pitch in the 10th inning, the Mets couldn’t close the deal in the bottom of the frame as Valdespin — inserted at shortstop — booted two grounders that helped the Nationals tie the game. Ryan Zimmerman reached first on a Valdespin grounder to begin the inning and scored the tying run against Bobby Parnell when Valdespin booted Ian Desmond’s grounder." 


Baseball Reference: Ian Desmond drives in the tying run in the 8th, then does it again in the 10th and once more in the 12th for good measure, as his Nationals finally beat the Mets, 7 - 6. The Elias Sports Bureau reports he is the first player since Art Shamsky (1966) to have three game-tying or go-ahead RBI from the 8th inning on in the same game. 


National Pastime.com: On the 11th anniversary of being drafted by the Mets, David Wright becomes the franchise's all-time run scorer when he crosses the plate for the 736th time after homering in the team's 7-6 loss in Washington. New York's 29 year-old third baseman is already the franchise career leader in doubles, total bases, RBIs, and extra-base hits.

Mets split a pair with San Fran.


NY Post: DOUBLE TROUBLE – FOUR-RUN SIXTH DOOMS METS IN OPENER. "Beltran misplayed Marquis Grissom’s two-out RBI double in the sixth inning, and Giants starter Brett Tomko ripped a three-run two-bagger off Ishii later in the frame that broke the game open...Ishii (L,1-4) encountered trouble all afternoon and was doomed by a series of events in the sixth...The Mets looked lethargic offensively and defensively in the 87-degree heat. David Wright committed his ninth error of the season in the third when he bumbled a grounder and hurried a one-hop throw to first, leading to an unearned run."


NY Post: SPLIT DECISION – METS ROLL IN NIGHTCAP AFTER AWFUL OPENER. "Kris Benson pitched seven sterling innings of three-hit, one-run ball, and the offense erupted with a 13-hit onslaught that completed a 12-1 rout and a twinbill split. The Mets (30-27) were led by Cliff Floyd’s two tape-measure blasts, along with homers from David Wright and Victor Diaz. They chased the once-formidable Schmidt after four innings to win for the seventh time in 10 games."
