A dozen ghosts, two homers from the kids, and a Polar Bear walk-off

The Mets pulled out a thrilling extra-inning walk-off victory over the Rays by a score 8-7 tonight at Citi Field. Kodai Senga was brilliant tonight against a heavy-hitting Rays lineup, limiting them to just one run and three hits over six innings of work, striking out a career-high dozen batters. And on three different occasions, the Mets hit a home run to come from behind—the final in walk-off fashion.

The Rays’ sole run off Senga came in the fourth on back-to-back one-out doubles by Brandon Lowe and the red-hot Isaac Paredes, which snapped the scoreless tie.
