Final Score: Phillies 3, Mets 2 - Dramatic but fruitless

SOMETHING, the Phillies topped the Mets 3-2. Jake Arrieta shut the Mets down for eight innings, allowing only one run on a Michael Conforto home run. Things finally got interesting in the ninth, when the Mets put the first two men on and chased Arrieta. Adam Morgan and Hector Neris were able to put out the fire, however, allowing one run to score on an infield hit but striking out Keon Broxton with the bases loaded to end it.

Zack Wheeler wasn’t particularly sharp, but he fought through seven innings.
