Two of the New York Mets’ All-Stars led the struggling Mets to their first road series win since early April with Sunday’s 6-2 victory over the Miami Marlins.
Starting pitcher Jacob deGrom held the Marlins to a run on six hits with six strikeouts in five innings, and Jeff McNeil, the National League’s batting average leader, homered on the first pitch of the game and delivered an important outfield assist for New York. The Mets tagged Marlins starting pitcher Sandy Alcantara for four runs on nine hits in six innings in Alcantara’s first start since appearing in the All-Star Game.
New York led 1-0 after one pitch when McNeil homered to right field. The Mets were inches away from a second run in the inning, but Curtis Granderson robbed Home Run Derby champ Pete Alonso of a home run with a catch at the left field fence.Defense aided the Mets in key situations. The Marlins had the bases full with one out in the second, and got a sharp single from Miguel Rojas to drive in their first run.
