Francisco Lindor slugs tiebreaking 2
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Francisco Lindor hit a tiebreaking two-run home run in the seventh inning and the New York Mets won their fifth straight game, beating the Los Angeles Dodgers 9-4 on Friday night.
Lindor sent his second homer of the season 396 feet into right field off Daniel Hudson (1-1) to give the Mets a 6-4 lead in the seventh after the Dodgers erased an early four-run deficit.
“It was pretty big for him to come through in that situation after we lost the lead,” manager Carlos Mendoza said. “I’ve been saying it. He’s a really good player, and at some point he was going to get going. Here he is, having a great night coming through when we needed it.”
DJ Stewart homered and had three RBIs, Starling Marte added a two-run single in the eighth, and the Mets have bounced back after losing their first five games by winning 11 of their last 14.
