The Rays and Mets exchanged solar home runs in the second inning, as Willy Adames opened the scoring with a home run off of Seth Lugo, and Robinson Cano responded in the bottom of the frame by sneaking his 10th home run of the season inside the left field foul pole off of Rays’ starter Blake Snell. The Mets had a chance for more in the inning, but Kevin Kiermaier made an excellent throw to nail Pete Alonso at the plate on a Jeff McNeil single to end the inning.
Final Score: Mets 5, Rays 2—Lugo and Alonso shine in victory
