NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Jean Segura has helped all over the Philadelphia Phillies infield this season.
Might have the bullpen’s biggest save now, too.
“Jean has been special for us this year,” manager Joe Girardi said.
Segura hit a two-run homer in the 10th inning and drove in a career-best five runs, bailing out the Phillies’ abominable bullpen to salvage a 9-8 win over the New York Mets on Monday for a four-game split.
The Mets erased a 6-0 deficit against former teammate Zack Wheeler and baseball’s worst relief corps, taking a 7-6 lead on Jeff McNeil’s three-run homer in the seventh inning.
