Clay Holmes delivered a dominant start, pitching seven scoreless innings, allowing only three hits and striking out four to secure the Mets’ first back‑to‑back win since March. His 1.42 ERA continues to rank among the league’s best.
Offensively, Nico Bichette went 3‑for‑5 on Friday and added a run‑scoring single on Saturday, while Mark Vientos hit a three‑run double, both performances sparking the Mets’ five‑run surge and cementing their 2‑1 series lead.
