Lindor's slam caps Mets' comeback in win over Brewers
MILWAUKEE — Francisco Lindor hit a two-out grand slam in the seventh inning to put New York ahead for good as the Mets rallied from a four-run deficit to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 7-5 on Tuesday.
Pete Alonso hit his second three-run homer in as many nights as the Mets maintained their one-game lead in the NL East over Atlanta and dealt a devastating blow to the Brewers' wild-card hopes. The Mets won with just four hits, a night after they clinched their first playoff appearance since 2016 with a 7-2 triumph at Milwaukee.
The Brewers remained 2 1/2 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies in the race for the NL's last wild-card spot. Milwaukee's loss clinched a playoff spot for Atlanta.
