Anthony Rieber Newsday: "Pete Alonso crushed a walk-off three-run home run to rightfield with none out in the 10th inning to give the Mets a 5-2 win over the Rangers and snap their season-high eight-game losing streak in dramatic 2024/Grimace/Devin Williams-in-Milwaukee/OMG fashion."
Mike Puma NY Post: "With Francisco Lindor at second base as the automatic runner to begin the bottom of the 10th inning, Luis Curvelo intentionally walked Juan Soto, a move that was expected by Alonso, who cleared the right field fence on a 1-1 pitch."
Abbey Mastracco NY Daily News: "Nolan McLean tossed six shutout innings, holding the Rangers to only five hits and two walks while striking out seven... A 2-0 lead was intact when McLean left the game, but the bullpen gave it away in the seventh...Left-hander Brooks Raley put two on and got two outs before handing the ball over to right-hander Reed Garrett to face No. 2 hitter Wyatt Langford. Garrett walked him to load the bases for Joc Pederson, who proceeded to line the second pitch he saw from Garrett to right field for a two-run, game-tying single."
From the Mets 5, Rangers 2 Post Game Notes:
Mets: Defeated the Rangers, 5-2, in walk-off fashion in the 10th… Marked their eighth walk-off win of the season and their second ever walk-off win over the Rangers (also: 8/30/23)... Snapped a season-high eight game losing streak…Was their longest losing streak since May 31 - June 9, 2018.
Pete Alonso (1-4, HR, 3 RBI, R, BB): Lined a walk-off three-run homer in the 10th…Marked his fifth career walk-off home run, the most in franchise history breaking a tie with Mike Piazza, Cleon Jones, Wilmer Flores, Chris Jones and Kevin McReynolds.
Nolan McLean (6.0 IP, 5 H, 2 BB, 7 K, HB): Fired 6.0 scoreless innings in his sixth career Major League start…Has not allowed a run in each of his first three career starts at Citi Field…Lowered his ERA to 1.19, the lowest mark by a Mets pitcher through their first six career Major League starts…The previous lowest mark was Terry Leach’s 1.73 ERA...Has struck out five or more batters in each of his first six Big League starts… Is the 20th pitcher in Major League history to record five or more strikeouts in each of their first six career outings…Is the first Mets hurler to accomplish the feat...Has recorded seven or more strikeouts in four of his first six Major League starts, tied with Matt Harvey and Nolan Ryan for the most such games by a Met through their first six Big League starts.
Francisco Lindor (1-3, 2 BB, R, SB): Picked up his 30th stolen base of the season in the first…Marks his second career season with 30+ stolen bases (also: 2023)...Has 116 stolen bases as a member of the Mets, tied with Lenny Dykstra for the seventh-most in franchise history.

Brian Joura Mets360: "This one hurt. The Mets jumped out to a 4-0 lead, went down 5-4, had a potential game-tying home run denied on a leaping catch and ended up on the wrong end of a 6-4 score against the Phillies."
NY Post: Mets cough up early lead in crushing loss to rival Phillies. "The first rule of playing the Phillies, especially in their ballpark, is don’t get lulled to sleep after building an early lead. Minus Francisco Lindor, the Mets still appeared in a comfortable place Saturday after jumping to a four-run advantage in the third inning."
Tim Healey Newsday: Mets blow four-run lead in loss to Phillies. "The Mets lost, 6-4, on Saturday in what reasonably can be described as The Cal Stevenson Game. He crushed a go-ahead two-run double off Reed Garrett in the bottom of the seventh and robbed J.D. Martinez of a potential tying home run in the top of the eighth, helping Philadelphia finish off a dramatic comeback win."
Dan Martin NY Post: Bryce Harper’s two homers ruins outing for Mets’ Luis Severino. "After striking out to end the first, Harper hit an opposite-field homer on a changeup in the fourth to cut into what was a four-run Mets lead...Harper got the Phillies closer two innings later...With a full count, Severino didn’t make a good enough slider and Harper hit it into the seats in right to make it a one-run game and the Phillies went ahead for good an inning later."
Tim Healey Newsday: Luisangel Acuna is in the majors now. Here's why the Mets changed their mind and called him up. "The Mets had mulled bringing up Acuna for a while, president of baseball operations David Stearns said. They decided to go for it after Francisco Lindor tweaked his back Friday night (he did not play Saturday)."

National Pastime.com: Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, with his eighth-inning thievery in a 7-4 loss to the Braves at Shea Stadium, becomes the first player to have four straight seasons of 50 or more stolen bases playing for a New York area team, which also includes Yankees, Dodgers, and Giants.
