Launching Rockets Early 🚀

It was quiet in the opening inning, but things heated up quickly in the top of the 2nd when Pete Alonso smashed a colossal 439-foot home run to center field, giving the Mets a 1-0 lead. Though the Diamondbacks were quick to equalize, with Randal Grichuk hitting a two-run homer in the bottom of the 3rd, the Mets kept their composure.

Lindor Evens the Score 💥

In the top of the 6th, Francisco Lindor came to the rescue by launching a solo homer to right field, tying the game at 2-2. His energy was just what we needed to stay in the fight!

Heroics in the Ninth! 🎉

Coming into the 9th inning tied 2-2, we needed something magical—and Jose Iglesias delivered. After Jesse Winker's double, Tyrone Taylor came in to pinch-run and later scored on Iglesias' clutch single to center. An error helped Iglesias advance to third, but the score stayed at 3-2 Mets.

Closing It Out 🔒

With nerves high, Edwin Díaz took the mound to secure the win. He struck out Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and Josh Bell, and finally got Jake McCarthy to pop out to shortstop. Game, set, match—Mets win! 🎉

Such an exhilarating game, folks! The offensive fireworks, strategic moves, and stellar performances had it all. Let’s carry this momentum forward! Go Mets! 🔵🟠
