Venezuelan catcher Francisco \u00c1lvarez<\/strong> drove in the tiebreaking run with a double in the top of the tenth inning, his first RBI in four weeks, while Puerto Rican Francisco Lindor<\/strong> hit a home run to lead off the game and added a run-scoring single in the tenth inning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite Shohei Ohtani’s imposing 23rd home run of the season<\/strong> \u2013 who also tied the game in the ninth with a sacrifice fly \u2013 the Mets kept their composure. Closer Edwin D\u00edaz<\/strong>, pitching for the third time in four days, allowed the tie but took the win (3-0). Right-hander Jos\u00e9 Butt\u00f3<\/strong> earned the first save of his career by authoritatively retiring the Dodgers’ last batters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The game also marked the return to the Major Leagues of right-hander Paul Blackburn<\/strong>, who pitched five scoreless innings, striking out Ohtani twice. For his part, Dustin May<\/strong> worked six solid innings for the Dodgers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outstanding Offensive Production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Francisco Lindor<\/strong>: 5-2, 1 HR, 2 RBIs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Francisco \u00c1lvarez<\/strong>: 4-2, 1 2B, 1 RBI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Andy Pag\u00e9s (LAD)<\/strong>: 5-2, 1 RBI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Shohei Ohtani (LAD)<\/strong>: 1 HR, 1 SF, 2 RBIs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    With this triumph, the Mets add their eighth victory in the last nine games<\/strong>, solidifying themselves as one of the most in-form teams in the National League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The next game in the series will be this Tuesday night at the same Los Angeles venue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
